Copy link

First of all, many thanks for PureJavaComm.

Could you provide a direct download link?

I am not using Maven and have no plans to. I found it very hard to find the place to manually download the .jar file from.

For example, the README for the JNA library here does provide direct download links for the Maven components:

https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/blob/master/README.md

  1. The README does not mention that "bin" directory in section "Obtaining a Copy". So I missed it.

  2. The files under "bin" are outdated. Version 1.0.2 is not there.

  3. Adding binaries to a Git repository is not good practice. Every clone will download unnecessary data.

By the way, the README is also outdated. It shows 1.0.2 on the Maven labels, but 1.0.1 in the rest of the text.

Or has version 1.0.2 not really been released? I could download a JAR with this version from Maven, but I see no release tag for it in Github. It is confusing.
