Overlap with Rucaja

[kud1ing]

Hi,

i've noticed that you've written similar code in order to instantiate and use the JVM as i've had in Rucaja for Tinkerpop-rs.

Maybe there is code/best practises to be shared. It would be especially interesting to come up with a type-safe but ergonomic API.

Yeah, I looked at rucaja first but decided it wasn't ready enough yet for my uses, so there definitely should be.

We should chat somewhere though, I'm aurora on mozilla IRC!

[kud1ing]

Fair enough. Rucaja covers the minimum necessary to support the Tinkerpop-rs proof-of-concept.
Thanks for the invitation to chat, but i am afraid i won't have much time for IRC.

Would you be interested in splitting of the non-JDBC specific parts?
As mentioned above i'd be especially interested in a type-safe but ergonomic API - all those expect() calls are a bit unwieldy.

By the way, the only reason Travis CI fails for Rucaja is kud1ing/rucaja#12

[rawrafox]

Yeah, I'll probably split off the JNI bits and the java/lang bits sometime this week, I just need to figure some stuff out about how much I need first. I just had an immediate need of reading some data from a DB2 in Rust, so everything in one blob was the easiest to get going.

First bit of this prepared for, https://github.com/rawrasaur/rust-jvm

I don't work actively on Rucaja/JVM integration anymore. I've noticed there is some overlapping crates regarding JVM bindings, though.
