Hi,
I have just started to release and package java bindings for libvirt.
I have made a request for review for Fedora on the new package:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453119
I found the exercise rather hard, JNI is of course on the edge of the Java
land, but it's hard to find good resources to look at for Java bindings
in Fedora, the gnome-java stuff seems very specific, and a lot of packages
basically rely on gcj for compilation of any JNI stuff.
you may look into jna. gstreamer-java use it. it's much simpler, easier
then jni without the above problems.
Well back in 97 we tried to avoid JNI in the Kaffe project, the
alternative was more elegant, easier, faster. I think everybody outside
of java has hoped or tried to develop different bindings mechanism,
unfortunately none prevailed, at this point I will stick with JNI,
I'll sing the praise for JNA, as it is VM-independent, so doesn't suffer
from the
problem most other (usually vm-specific) JNI-replacements do.
cheers,
