Java Wrapper
HDF
Pure JavaLibrary
HDF
Java Native Interface
a programming framework that allows Java code to call and be called by applications and libraries written in other languages
October 15-17, 2008 HDF and HDF-EOS Workshop XII 5
Pure Java Library
• Pros: True platform independence Direct access to file (no data
conversion between C and Java)
HDF
Pure JavaLibrary
• Cons: Substantial amount of work to
implement Hard to maintain (new features or
format changes)
October 15-17, 2008 HDF and HDF-EOS Workshop XII 6
HDF JNI
• Pros: Easy to implement Easy to maintain
HDF
HDF
Java Native Interface
• Cons: Requires data conversion between C
and Java HDF JNI is platform dependent
