Junixsocket - Unix Domain Sockets for Java

junixsocket is a Java/JNI library that allows the use of Unix Domain Sockets (AF_UNIX sockets) from Java. In contrast to other implementations, junixsocket extends the Java Sockets API (java.net.Socket, java.net.SocketAddress, etc.). It supports RMI over AF_UNIX. It can connect to local MySQL server via Unix domain sockets (provides a AFUNIXDatabaseSocketFactory for Connector/J).
