Directly downloading jvpp.jar

vpp provides java bindings which can be downloaded

Getting jvpp via maven

Add the following to the repositories section in your ~/.m2/settings.xml to pick up the fd.io maven repo: 

<repository>
  <id>fd.io-release</id>
  <name>fd.io-release</name>
  <url>https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.release/</url>
  <releases>

  </snapshots>
</repository>

More information on setting up maven repositories in settings.xml.

Then you can get jvpp by putting in the dependencies section of your pom.xml file:

  <artifactId>jvpp-core</artifactId>
  <version>18.04</version>
