I saw your post to the Xen-API list, don't be desesperate we have a simpler
alternative, I was just waiting for you to show up here :-)
You're in luck - we already have people working on Java bindings
for
libvirt & anyone else who has time is more than welcome to contribute
code to improve the Java bindings. There is more information in this
mail:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-June/msg00280.html
We also have full authenticated, encrypted remote access to all our APIs.
Information on this can be found here:
http://libvirt.org/remote.html
http://libvirt.org/auth.html
I'm in the middle of preparing a 0.2.0 libvirt-java release with the
cleanup of the API. That versions should be ready for consumption, and
I will push it for example for Fedora-9 .
Give me just 2 more hours, it should show up at
ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/java/
