junixsocket is a Java/JNI library that allows the use of Unix Domain Sockets (AF_UNIX sockets) and other socket types, such as AF_TIPC and AF_VSOCK, from Java, using the standard Socket API

The newest version!

/**
 * Describes junixsocket capabilities the current environment (system platform, native library,
 * etc.) may or may not support.
 *
 * You can check whether your environment supports a given capability by calling
 * {@link AFSocket#supports(AFSocketCapability)}.
 *
 * You can also manually disable a given capability by specifying a System property of the form
 * org.newsclub.net.unix.library.disable.CAPABILITY_SOMETHING_SOMETHING=true
 * when invoking the JVM (make sure this property is set before junixsocket is accessed).
 *
 * A simple way to check which capabilities are supported in an environment is to run the
 * `junixsocket-selftest` jar.
