Re: [Hyperic-hq-discuss] Difficulty in using Sigar API to retrieve sys info

[Dileepa J. <dil...@gm...>]

Can somebody give me instructions to setup Sigar.jar with relevant native
libraries to start developing my application? I hope Sigar API supports
Ubuntu 11.04 (64bit), having trouble in setting up Sigar as the API classes
don't provide expected results at the moment.

Thanks,
Dileepa
