Purpose of the Manual

The purpose of this manual is to provide a comprehensive guide for creating Java bindings to Rust libraries using Java 22 and Rust 1.81.0. It will cover the essential steps and concepts required to allow Java applications to call Rust functions, making use of the Foreign Function and Memory API. By the end of this manual, developers will be able to seamlessly integrate Rust’s high-performance, memory-safe capabilities into their Java applications, enabling cross-language functionality.
