This project is the native native library counterpart to picam.
Previous versions of picam used JNA, the latest versions use a pure JNI solution as provided by this project.
The implementation is based on the original source code for Raspistill, but with a significant re-write. See README.BROADCOM for the original copyright notice.
Clone the source to a directory on your Pi.
Execute the "pi.sh" command to produce a "picam.so" shared library that your Java picam application can then use.
However, there is no real need to build the library yourself - a pre-built version is bundled with the picam-2.x distribution jar and this can be automatically extracted and loaded.
- TODO think about using vcos_log_error
- TODO any remaining configuration values to set from the Java (or that were missing generally)
- organise this native project a bit more (makefile?)
- issue of sometimes the capture not completing (mmal_server error in logs, same as picam issue?)
