picam-native

This project is the native native library counterpart to picam.

Previous versions of picam used JNA, the latest versions use a pure JNI solution as provided by this project.

The implementation is based on the original source code for Raspistill, but with a significant re-write. See README.BROADCOM for the original copyright notice.

Building the shared library

Clone the source to a directory on your Pi.

Execute the "pi.sh" command to produce a "picam.so" shared library that your Java picam application can then use.

However, there is no real need to build the library yourself - a pre-built version is bundled with the picam-2.x distribution jar and this can be automatically extracted and loaded.
