+jVamp -- a Java host interface for Vamp audio analysis plugins
+==============================================================
+

+
+jVamp is a JNI (Java Native Interface) library that permits Java
+applications to load and use Vamp audio analysis plugins.
+
+Vamp plugins are native-code plugins typically written in C++. In
+order to load them into a Java application, you need a native wrapper
+library (that is, jVamp) and both the wrapper and the plugin need to
+be compiled natively for the machine platform you are using.
