JNA Pointer to Pointer

I am trying to use JNA and execute with a pointer to a pointer but I keep having trouble. I am able to use other functions in the class, however the arguments in this function are giving me trouble. My interface and java where works fine, and i can use the other methods, however "execute_file" & "alenkaexecute" is giving me trouble. Is my method declaration off? I am thinking maybe i should have a string array instead of PointerByReference? At the bottom i included the c++ with execute_file.

Thank you!

public interface libcvm extends Library{
        void alenkaInit(PointerByReference av);
        int execute_file(int ac, PointerByReference av);
        void alenkaClose();
        int alenkaExecute(ByteBuffer s); 
    }
        public static void main(String[] args) {
        libcvm libcvm = (libcvm) Native.loadLibrary("libcvm.so", libcvm.class);
        PointerByReference pref = new PointerByReference();
        libcvm.execute_file(2, pref);
        Pointer p = pref.getValue();    
    }
