<h1>Java API bindings</h1>
<h2>Presentation</h2>
<p>The Java bindings are currently a work in progress based mostly
on the work of Toth Istvan. The first usable release is 0.2.0, where
most of the naming conventions were defined. Futher release will try
as much as possible to stay compatible</p>
<h2>Getting it</h2>
<p>
The latest versions of the libvirt Java bindings can be downloaded from:
</p>
<ul><li><a href="ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/java/">libvirt.org FTP server</a></li><li><a href="http://libvirt.org/sources/java/">libvirt.org HTTP server</a></li></ul>
<h2>Hourly development snapshots</h2>
<p> Once an hour, an automated snapshot is made from the latest CVS server
source tree. These snapshots should be usable, but we make no guarantees
about their stability: </p>
<ul><li><a href="ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/java/libvirt-java-snapshot.tar.gz">libvirt.org FTP server</a></li><li><a href="http://libvirt.org/sources/java/libvirt-java-snapshot.tar.gz">libvirt.org HTTP server</a></li></ul>
<h2>CVS repository access</h2>
<p> The master source repository uses <a href="http://ximbiot.com/cvs/cvshome/docs/">CVS</a> and anonymous access
is provided. Prior to accessing the server is it necessary to authenticate
using the password <code>anoncvs</code>. This can be accomplished with
the <code>cvs login</code> command:
</p>
<pre>
# cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@libvirt.org:2401/data/cvs login
</pre>
<p>
Once authenticated, a checkout can be obtained using
</p>
<pre>
# cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@libvirt.org:2401/data/cvs co libvirt-java
</pre>
<p>
The libvirt-java build process uses GNU autotools, so after obtaining a checkout
it is necessary to generate the configure script and Makefile.in templates
using the <code>autogen.sh</code> command. As an example, to do a complete
build and install it into your home directory run:
</p>
<pre>
./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr
make
make install
</pre>
<p>Other build system are not currently available but as usual we take patches
(Eclipse/ant/...) would be welcome !</p>
<p> currently libvirt-java requires a version of libvirt &gt;= 0.4.0 to be
installed as well as the associated libvirt development files/package. It
should compile with any java implementation &gt;= 1.5, the bindings uses
the enum construct which appeared only in that version.</p>
<p>Libvirt-java bindings development occurs on the same mailing-list as
the normal libvirt work see <a href="contact.html">the associated contact
page</a></p>
<h2>GIT repository mirror</h2>
<p>
The CVS source repository is also mirrored using GIT, and is available
for anonymous access via:
</p>
<pre>
git clone git://git.et.redhat.com/libvirt-java
</pre>
<p>
It can also be browsed at
</p>
<pre>
<a href="http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=libvirt-java.git;a=summary">http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=libvirt-java.git;a=summary</a>
</pre>
<h2>Content</h2>
<p>The bindings are articulated around a few
classes in the <code>org/libvirt</code> namespace, notably the
<code>Connect</code>, <code>Domain</code> and <code>Network</code>
ones. Functions in the <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt.html">C API</a>
taking <code>virConnectPtr</code>, <code>virDomainPtr</code> or
<code>virNetworkPtr</code> as their first argument usually become
methods for the classes, their name is just stripped from the
virConnect or virDomain(Get) prefix and the first letter gets converted to
lower case, for example the C functions:</p>
<p>
<code>int <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virConnectNumOfDomains">virConnectNumOfDomains</a>
(virConnectPtr conn);</code>
</p>
<p>
<code>int <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainSetMaxMemory">virDomainSetMaxMemory</a>
(virDomainPtr domain, unsigned long memory);</code>
</p>
<p>become</p>
<p>
<code>virConn::numOfDomains()</code>
</p>
<p>
<code>virDomain::setMaxMemory(long memory)</code>
</p>
<p> There is of course some functions where the mapping is less direct
and using extra classes to map complex arguments. The <a href="http://libvirt.org/org/libvirt/package-summary.html">Javadoc</a> is available online or as
part of a separate libvirt-java-javadoc package.</p>
<p>So let's look at a simple example inspired from the
<code>test.java</code> test found in <code>src</code> in the source tree:</p>
<pre>import <span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">org.libvirt.*</span>;
public class minitest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connect conn=null;
try{
conn = new <span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">Connect</span>("test:///default", true);
} catch (<span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">LibvirtException</span> e){
System.out.println("exception caught:"+e);
System.out.println(e.getError());
}
try{
<span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">Domain</span> testDomain=conn.<span style="color: #007F00; background-color: #FFFFFF">domainLookupByName</span>("test");
System.out.println("Domain:" + testDomain.<span style="color: #E50073; background-color: #FFFFFF">getName</span>() + " id " +
testDomain.<span style="color: #E50073; background-color: #FFFFFF">getID</span>() + " running " +
testDomain.<span style="color: #E50073; background-color: #FFFFFF">getOSType</span>());
} catch (<span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">LibvirtException</span> e){
System.out.println("exception caught:"+e);
System.out.println(e.getError());
}
}
}
</pre>
<p>There is not much to comment about it, it really is a straight mapping
from the C API, the only points to notice are:</p>
<ul><li>the import of the modules in the <code><span style="color: #0071FF; background-color: #FFFFFF">org.libvirt</span></code> namespace</li><li>getting a connection to the hypervisor, in that case using the
readonly access to the default test hypervisor.</li><li>getting an object representing the test domain using <span style="color: #007F00; background-color: #FFFFFF">lookupByName</span></li><li>if the domain is not found a LibvirtError exception will be raised</li><li>extracting and printing some information about the domain using
various <span style="color: #E50073; background-color: #FFFFFF">methods</span>
associated to the Domain class.</li></ul>
