Maybe there are other methods... I use this:

public final class b_callbacks {

    private b_callbacks(){
    }


    public static interface void_f_void{
	public void f();
    }

    public static interface void_f_int{
	public void f(int i);
    }


}

----

when I want to use a function pointer

import b_callbacks.void_f_int;

private void_f_int my_callback;

my_callback = new void_f_int(){
 public void f(int i){
   //code
 }
};

to call the callback

my_callback.f(42);


====

For each function pointer type we create an interface.
