NAME

       libglpk-java - GNU Linear Programming Kit Java Binding

DESCRIPTION

       The  GNU  Linear  Programming  Kit  (GLPK)  package supplies a solver for large scale linear programming (LP) and mixed integer programming
       (MIP).  The GLPK project is hosted at http://www.gnu.org/software/glpk.

       It has two mailing lists:
       - help-glpk@gnu.org and
       - bug-glpk@gnu.org.

       To subscribe to one of these lists, please, send an empty mail with a Subject: header line of just "subscribe" to the list.

       GLPK provides a library written in C and a standalone solver.  The source code provided at ftp://gnu.ftp.org/gnu/glpk/ contains	the  docu-
       mentation of the library in file doc/glpk.pdf.

       The Java platform provides the Java Native Interface (JNI) to integrate non-Java language libraries into Java applications.

       Project GLPK for Java delivers a Java Binding for GLPK. It is hosted at http://glpk-java.sourceforge.net/.

       To report problems and suggestions concerning GLPK for Java, please, send an email to the author at xypron.glpk@gmx.de.

ARCHITECTURE

       A GLPK for Java application will consist of the following
       - the GLPK library
       - the GLPK for Java JNI library
       - the GLPK for Java class library
       - the application code.

GLPK LIBRARY

       The GLPK library can be compiled from source code. Follow the instructions in file INSTALL provided in the source distribution. Precompiled
       packages are available in many Linux distributions.

       The usual installation path for the library is /usr/local/lib/libglpk.so.  The library has to be in the search path for binaries.

GLPK FOR JAVA JNI LIBRARY

       The GLPK for Java JNI library can be compiled from source code. Follow the instructions in file INSTALL provided in  the  source  distribu-
       tion.

       The  usual installation path for the library is /usr/local/lib/jni/libglpk-java.so.  The library has to be in the search path for binaries.
       Specify the library path upon invocation of the application, e.g.
       java -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/libjni

GLPK FOR JAVA CLASS LIBRARY

       The source code to compile the GLPK for Java class library is provided at http://glpk-java.sourceforge.net.

       The GLPK for Java class library can be compiled from source code. Follow the instructions in file INSTALL provided in the source  distribu-
       tion.  The usual installation path for the library is /usr/local/share/java/glpk-java.jar.

       The library has to be in the CLASSPATH. Specify the classpath upon invocation of the application, e.g.
       java -classpath /usr/local/share/java/glpk-java.jar;.

SEE ALSO

       Further documentation and examples can be found in the documentation path, which defaults to /usr/local/share/doc/libglpk-java.

NAME

       dacs.java - DACS Java support

DESCRIPTION

       This document describes support for Java provided by DACS.

       To enable Java support, DACS must be configured using the --enable-java flag. It may also be necessary to specify the location of the Java
       commands and include files. See dacs.install(7)[1].

	   Note
	   Java support is currently very limited and should be considered experimental. It is currently only possible to call dacsauth(1)[2] and
	   dacscheck(1)[3] using the Java Native Interface (JNI) provided. The command line arguments to both of these commands are exactly as
	   documented in their manual pages. Each argument is passed as a String.

	   The code is not thread-safe and is probably not suitable for being called many times within a particular process due to assumptions it
	   makes about dynamic memory allocation.

	   There are no immediate plans to improve or extend Java support. Using the existing capability to build the JNI layer, however, it
	   should not be difficult for an experienced Java programmer to build upon the example Java code provided.

       With Java support enabled, building DACS will copy the JNI shared library and a .jar file to the library directory (default:
       /usr/local/dacs/lib), and the JNI include files to the include directory (default: /usr/local/dacs/include).

       The tools/java/jni distribution directory contains a simple script called javarun that demonstrates how to run dacsauth or dacscheck as a
       Java application. For example, to validate the Unix password for user somebody, run (as root):

	   ./javarun dacsauth -m unix suff -user somebody -prompt

DIAGNOSTICS

       The return codes are as documented in the command's manual page.
