Where is the source? #1

Hello, and thank you for publishing this.

I would be very interested to see the source of the library. This repo currently only seems to contain the compiled libraries.

Any chance you could push the source for these libraries as well?

Sorry, but the software source is not open for obvious reasons. Even if it only contains a plagiarism of the SBT API header, legally I cannot provide the sources without violating the associated copy rights... as long as Oracle does not publish the definition (doc or header) of this API. I made this software for my own uses. And I share it here for educational purposes or to help teams to resolve specific problems.

About AIX: this platform is closed, and you probably need to pay an expensive license for the compiler suite. About Linux on ppc64: As far as I know Oracle never released for Linux/ppc64.

@janbar you can always use "clean room design" technique to avoid any copy rights.
