Without it, you would be forced to use C or one of the other bindings provided. +MSG was the first distributed programming environment provided within +SimGrid. While almost realistic, it remains quite simple (simplistic?). +This describes the Java bindings to this interface. + +\section jMSG_who Who should use this (and who shouldn't) +You should use MSG if you want to study some heuristics for a +given problem you don't really want to implement. If you want to +use the Java programming language, your are in the right +section. + To make a long story short, it's a JNI binding, so it implies that : \li Most of the MSG and SimGrid documentation about behavioral aspects applies directly to what you are programming. \li MSG data structures are mapped to Java objects. So it means that from the syntaxic point of view, you have to know how those objects are. Fortunately, we have generated the Javadoc for those objects. So take a look at it
