Java apis用于查询文件的RPM包信息

Question

In Linux, RPM package information for a file can be determined using the 'rpm -qf' option. Is anyone aware of a JAVA library which supports these kind of operations?

Eg:

/bin # rpm -qf grep
grep-2.7-5.7.1

Answer 1

I am unaware of any library that provides an easy API to check RPM package info. You can, however, use Java to execute shell commands and interpret their results.

Some more info:

• Executing shell commands from Java
• Want to invoke a linux shell command from Java

Answer 2

There is Redline RPM , which has a Scanner that might do what you want. I've used it to package RPMs via Ant/Maven, but never to read them.
