With jdk8, `javac` has an option `-h` to generate the header files of
native classes.
So there is no need to run `javah` several times.
As there is now only one command to run (`javac`), there is no need for
the wrapper script `gen_kiwix.sh`.
Fix#167
If the `nativeHandle` is null, the JNIKiwixReader is invalid and we must
not use it.
Throwing an exception for the caller code to handle this properly.
And previously, user code has no way to detect something went wrong :/
For binary content (not compressed), it could be interesting to
directly read the content in the zim file instead of using `kiwix-lib`.
This method returns the needed information to do so (if possible).
This is a major API break. User code will have to be rewritten.
Before this commit, API was a unique object wrapping the library and
handle a global state with one `Reader` and one `Writer` at the time.
Now, the API is axed around three main objects :
- The `JNIKiwixReader`, a wrapper around a `kiwix::Reader` (who allow to
read one zim)
- The `JNIKiwixSearcher`, a wrapper around a `kiwix::Searcher` (who allow
to search through one or more reader(s))
- The `JNIKiwixSearcher.Result` a result of a search. Allowing to get all
information about a result (title, url, content, snippet, ...)
`kiwix-android` is using `kiwix-lib` as an external java application now.
So we need `kiwix-lib` build system to also install application files
(manifest, resources, ..).
