This is an experimental parser and generator that creates Java bindings sources from GObject Introspection .gir XML files. XOM is used for parsing the XMLs. The generated Java code is built and exported using CodeModel. The native interoperability library used is BridJ.

Currently, gir2java is capable of:

• generating enums for enumeration elements found in .girs
• making some sense of packages and namespaces
• creating empty interfaces for opaque structs
• creating the beginnings of classes for <record> elements with fields

This is an experiment, and will likely become a part of gstreamer-1.x-java on top of its low-level bindings.

The repository contains an Eclipse (3.8.1) project that you can import straight to your workspace. There is no build file yet, just run the Gir2Java class from Eclipse.
