A full java binding using JNA.
For using the binding as standalone (to write applications using Elektra), make sure that CLASSPATH includes jna.jar and libelektra.jar (or this directory which contains the elektra subdirectory), e.g.:
export CLASSPATH="/usr/share/java/libelektra.jar:/usr/share/java/jna.jar"
export CLASSPATH="~e/src/bindings/jna:/usr/share/java/jna.jar"
to set it permanently for your user, you can use:
kdb set user/env/override/CLASSPATH "/usr/share/java/libelektra.jar:/usr/share/java/jna.jar"
then you can compile and run HelloElektra:
javac HelloElektra.java && java HelloElektra
For plugin development, see plugins and also here for more information.
Unit tests can be run after importing jUnit, JNA and the elektra java library into a project (eclipse, netbeans, intelliJ, ...).
Tested library versions are: JNA: 4.1 jUnit: 4.11 [jUnit 3 is not supported] Both libraries should work on version 4.0 too, though.
It should also be possible to run the tests by command line: 1) Compile the library and tests (run in root directory; make sure junit4 and jna are installed and/or path is correct): javac -cp src/elektra:/usr/share/java/jna.jar:/usr/share/java/junit4.jar src/elektra/.java src/elektra/plugin/.java src/elektra/test/*.java 2) Run all jUnit tests: java -cp src:/usr/share/java/jna.jar:/usr/share/java/junit4.jar org.junit.runner.JUnitCore elektra.test.AllTests 2.1) Or run all tests on their own: java -cp src:/usr/share/java/jna.jar:/usr/share/java/junit4.jar org.junit.runner.JUnitCore elektra.test.KeyTest java -cp src:/usr/share/java/jna.jar:/usr/share/java/junit4.jar org.junit.runner.JUnitCore elektra.test.KeySetTest
- no binary keys
- error/warning fixed to a special number, no generator for any error/warning
- no java iterator for metadata
- no simple way to print warning/errors
