[Nfdump-discuss] nfdump java interface with JNI

[Gijs M. <gij...@su...>]

Hello,

We want to directly read and understand nfdump files from Java (don't 
ask why ;) ). We can write a parser for nfdump, but we also discovered 
JNI, an java-to-other_language API builder. Did anyone already tried to 
to this with nfdump?

Next to that, how likely is the storage format of nfdump / nfcapd going 
to change in the future? My problem is; if we write a Java API for 
reading nfdump files, we will base this on the current version of 
nfdump. We would like this code to be able to read nfcapd exported files 
also in the future.

any great insights or opinions, anybody?
