To invoke native code (ex. C, C++, etc.) from Java, Java Native Interface (JNI) has always been the de-facto solution but JNI is cumbersome. Panama solves those issues by introducing a supported, efficient, and secure way to invoke native code from Java. Panama has 2 fundamental APIs,...
This incubator API offers statically-typed, pure-Java access to native code. This API will considerably simplify the otherwise convoluted and error-prone process of binding to a native library. Java has supported native method calls via the Java Native Interface (JNI) since Java 1.1 but it is ...
Ease of use — Replaces the Java Native Interface (JNI) with a superior, pure-Java development model. Performance — Provides performance that is comparable to, if not better than, existing APIs such as JNI and `sun.misc.Unsafe. Generality — Provides ways to operate on different kinds of ...
