public static boolean isAvailable()
- Indicates whether the JNIAST package is available or not.
This will return true if the JNIAST classes can be
used, but false if the requisite native code is not
available (the shared library is not on the java.library.path).
If the classes are not available, then the first time it is
invoked it will write a warning to that effect via the
logger.
- Returns:
