Java binding for the nanomsg library.

This package contains a JNI-based Java binding for nanomsg, the communications and synchronization library.

You will need the following:

1. A copy of the JDK. The binding has been tested on v1.7.0_21 running on a Windows 7 machine.

2. A copy of ant. I use v1.8.4.

3. A C compiler. I use MSVC 2010.

4. A copy of cpptasks, an ant helper that automates compilation of C code. I use v1.0b5. You can find a copy in the lib/ant directory; therefore, you can run ant with ant -lib lib/ant/cpptasks-1.0b5.jar jar to use the included cpptasks.

5. Look at the build.<OS>.properties file for your OS. Pay particular attention to the value of dir.jni.headers.

Once your environment is set up and you have downloaded jnano, you can do any of these:

• ant jar -- create all JARs.

• ant test -- run all unit tests (none for now).

• ant run -- run a specific class in one of the JARs (such as Tester).

• ant perf -- run performance tests.

ant -Dcn=org.nanomsg.Tester run

ant -Dcn=org.nanomsg.inproc_lat -Dargs="1 100000" perf

ant -Dcn=org.nanomsg.inproc_thr -Dargs="1 100000" perf

Work in progress. Right now both performance tests for inproc-based sockets work, with a performance comparable to what you get on C.

This project is released under the MIT license, as is the native libnanomsg library. See COPYING for more details.
