Well the "trick" in question is that the code using the JACK API can be linked with "libjackserver.lib" instead of the normal "libjack.lib". Then the "jack_client_open" call will create an server internal client, instead of a separated process JACK based client. 

This mecanism uses the "jackdrc" file on Linux or OSX to know what server parameters have to be used. I'm not sure this currently works on WIndows... Otherwise another way is to use the control API  to completely control the server.
