[Mapserver-users] JavaMapServer (JNI-only)

[Steve Lime]

You're definitely correct on the "pure" java implmentation. The webpage
is in need of a facelift. The plan was always to wrap the C version. I
curious as to how your stuff compares with the Swig generated JNI
interface.

I just released a completely barebones JNI interface to a
compiled MapServer 3.6.3 DLL, along with a ANT-based build
and test environment, at SourceForge:

JavaMapServer 0.5.0
http://sourceforge.net/projects/javamapserver 

I am new to making releases at SF. There is currently
no documentation. I didn't include any release notes.

I hope to get some improved code out there, with an example,
soon. I'm untangling an example which can be deployed in a
servlet engine. I'm currently using JavaMapServer inside
a servlet running on JBoss. I'm also working on an MBean
that puts the MapScriptBean into JNDI.

The header documentation in the source files, and the main
project page are misleading... I doubt that there will ever
be a "pure-Java" implementation of MapServer.

For my current needs a JNI interface works just fine.
