# appindicator-gtk3-java
[](https://github.com/purejava/appindicator-gtk3-java/blob/master/LICENSE)
Java bindings for libayatana-appindicator and libappindicator-gtk3 in 100% pure Java
Based on libayatana-appindicator3-1 (0.5.92-1)
Based on libappindicator3-1 (12.10.1+20.10.20200706.1-0ubuntu1)
# Requires
Java 22
- due to the use of the [Foreign Function & Memory API](https://openjdk.org/jeps/454). Please refer to an older version of this lib, if you are interested in using it with an older JDK (with `--enable-preview`).
# Usage
The bindings come in three flavors:
## Dependency including *all bindings* related to libappindicator:
- gtk-3.0
- glib-2.0
- cairo
- gdk-pixbuf-2.0
- pango-1.0
- atk-1.0
- harfbuzz
[](https://central.sonatype.com/search?q=libappindicator-gtk3-java-full&smo=true&namespace=org.purejava)
### Gradle
```groovy
implementation group: 'org.purejava', name: 'libappindicator-gtk3-java-full', version: '1.4.2'
```
### Maven
```java
org.purejava
libappindicator-gtk3-java-full
1.4.2
```
As the according jar has a size of ~9,6M, I decided to provide a **reduced variant of the bindings**, see below.
