I would like to use libvirt to manipulate virtual machines of different types (KVM, ESXi etc.)

I added dependencies to my project the libvirt and jna jars.

trying to execute your example code I am getting a run time exception saying the library cann't be found.

it an actual libvirt c library is also required, and needs to be compiled separately?

can you please write down all needed steps for using libvirt with java binding?

thanks in advance.
