Re: [Xen-users] use java to run xm tool

The problem with libvirt Java binding is that you need build the JNI
library first. And you also need to setup correctly your libvirt daemon
in case of a remote access (it can be a pain).

Another choice is the Xen API itself. Newer version of the Java Xen API
can be found here : http://community.citrix.com/cdn/xs/sdks with the API
doc itself.

It works pretty well but you have some things to know first :
- you have first to enable the xen-api-server on the Dom0
- install python-pam if you use pam authentication for the
xen-api-server
- you can start a server but you can't create a new one (or more
precisely I've never achieved to). But to start a DomU you have to
register itself with the Dom0 first using 'xm new' not 'xm create'.
