| # Java Library |
| |
| The GraphAr Java library is currently available in two versions: |
| |
| ## 1. Java-FFI Version (Deprecated) |
| |
| This version is implemented using FastFFI to bridge Java and C++ code. While functional, this version is no longer being actively updated or maintained. |
| |
| ## 2. Pure Java Version (Under Development) |
| |
| This is the next generation of the GraphAr Java library, being actively developed to provide a pure Java implementation without native dependencies. |
| |
| Currently, only the `graphar-info` module has been implemented in pure Java, which provides the ability to parse graph info (schema). Additional modules such as IO and high level API will be provided progressively. |
