RaiMan proposed the following answer:
It depends on what you want to achieve:
-- use single API features in your C++ code
... by directly calling these methods (your JNI approach).
as mentioned: overkill in my opinion
... and needs very good reasons to do that (I cannot see any though)
-- run short workflow snippets
... at specific points in your C++ code
For this I would suggest to use JavaScript scripts and run them in a subprocess
using
java -jar sikulixapi.jar -r somescript.sikuli
where somescript.sikuli is a folder containing the needed images and a
somescript.js containing the workflow
Using JNI, you might use
org.sikuli.script.Runner.run("path-to-somescript.sikuli", args-array)
the advantage: the startup delay is rather short compared to the Jython
scripts running.
If interested in this solution: come back and tell me more about your
usage scenario
-- with 1.1.0 final (available in one of the next nightlies)
... there will be a RunServer (specially started sikulixapi.jar) that waits for
socket-based requests, which can be single API calls and/or complete script
snippets to be run. The server can be on the same machine or somewhere in the
TCP/IP network.
This is mainly implemented, to support any environments, that cannot integrate
with Java directly (like C++, C# and others)
