+
+Here are Java JNI based api bindings for KDE 3.2.
+
+All the C++/Java files in this project are generated from the KDE 3.2 C++ headers,
+apart from the following:
+
+KDESupport.cpp
+KDESupport.h
+ C++ static type conversion methods; Java <--> C++
+
+BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
+
+1) Ensure that the kdebindings/qtjava project has been built first.
+ $ cd kdebindings/kdejava
+ $ make
+ $ make install
+
+ The koala.jar file is installed in $(kde_libraries)/java.You will need to add
+ qtjava.jar and koala.jar to your classpath.
+
+2) That's it - you should be able to compile and run the Java example
+ kdejava/koala/examples/kscribble by typing:
+
+ $ javac *.java
+ $ java Main
+
+3) If you wish to write KDE Java applications, include the following in the class which has a main() function:
+
+ static {
+ qtjava.initialize();
+ kdejava.initialize();
+ }
+
+It will load the KDE Java 'libkdejava.so' and 'libqtjava.so' shared libraries
+
+4)
