FreeType JNI

---

FreeType version: 2.13.3

---

Features

• Natives compiled with libraries: zlib, harfbuzz, libpng
• Сaching FTStruct objects to prevent unnecessary heap usage and duplicates
• Enumerations are actually java enums (so it would be hard to use the wrong argument in a FreeType function)
• Flag bitmask objects (as an alternative to integers)

Requirements

• Java: 1.8 +
• Android SDK: 21 +

How to use

1. Add the freetype-jni dependency.
2. Add the natives you need:
   • freetype-jni-natives-windows (Archetictures available: x86_64, x86)
   • freetype-jni-natives-linux (Archetictures available: x86_64, aarch64)
   • freetype-jni-natives-android (all ABIs available)
