The Java API already has a full docs section (quick-start, convex/MIP API reference, examples) wired into the toctree, but it was never mentioned in introduction.rst's Supported APIs list, install.rst's Quick Start Guides list, or convex-features.rst/milp-features.rst's access-method lists, so it wasn't discoverable from the pages users land on first. Adds a Java bullet to each, matching the existing Python/C entries.

it alongside Python/C, so it wasn't discoverable from the pages users

quick-start.rst only covered building the bindings from source. Add
sections for the two ways most consumers will actually get them: the
prebuilt cuopt.jar/libcuopt_jni.so already in the official Docker
images, and the com.nvidia.cuopt:cuopt Maven classifier jars. Note
that the classifier jars embed libcuopt and its RAPIDS dependencies
but not the CUDA toolkit's own math libraries, so the target system
still needs a CUDA runtime.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation adds experimental Java installation guidance and extends the install selector with Java Maven options and C component choices. The API, convex solver, and MIP guides link to Java support information.

Changes

Experimental Java installation and selector

Layer / File(s) Summary
Installation command generation
docs/cuopt/source/_static/install-selector.js
Shared pip and conda command builders support C component packages. The selector adds Java container and Maven options, including stable and nightly Maven versions and architecture-specific classifiers.
Selector behavior and controls
docs/cuopt/source/_static/install-selector.js, docs/cuopt/source/conf.py
The selector resolves commands by C component, uses the full C install for CLI and containers, and updates CUDA, architecture, and component controls. The directive accepts java as a default interface.
Java and C installation guidance
docs/cuopt/source/cuopt-java/quick-start.rst, docs/cuopt/source/install.rst, docs/cuopt/source/cuopt-c/quick-start.rst
The Java quick start describes Docker and Maven setup, CUDA library requirements, and a container-based LP smoke test. The installation guide lists Java as experimental. The C quick start describes component selection.
Java support links in cuOpt guides
docs/cuopt/source/introduction.rst, docs/cuopt/source/convex-features.rst, docs/cuopt/source/milp-features.rst
The API, convex solver, and MIP guides add experimental Java support information and link to the Java quick start.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 126f1

The Java Maven selector currently generates unpublished stable and nightly coordinates, so installs through it fail. The container route and documented snapshot dependency remain alternatives, but the Maven commands should be corrected before users rely on them.

The prior note said the CUDA runtime libraries "must already be
present" without showing how. Add a docker run example against
nvidia/cuda:*-runtime-* mirroring the container actually used to
verify this end to end.
The experimental Java bindings live in ``java/cuopt``. There are three ways to
get them, depending on your setup:

Only a couple of minor changes, otherwise LGTM

Point MyProgram.java at the LP Example below instead of leaving it
undefined, and note the apt/dnf cuda-libraries package for consumers
not using a Docker base image.
Capitalize bullet points, rename to "Java Quickstart Guide" to match
the "Quickstart" spelling used elsewhere in the docs, and update
install.rst's Java entry now that it's distributed via Docker and
Maven, not source-build only.

quick-start instructions to use Java’s supported basename wildcard for all JARs
in the lib directory, preserving the current classpath entries and command
behavior.
- Line 120: Update the Maven dependency example in the quick-start documentation
so its version resolves: add the required Sonatype snapshot repository to the
complete Maven example for 26.10.0-SNAPSHOT, or change the dependency to a
published release version.
- Around line 128-129: Update the requirements heading in the Java quick-start
documentation to say that an installed cuOpt library is required for source
builds, not for the Java module generally; leave the classifier-jar behavior
unchanged.

Python/C/CLI quick-starts don't showcase Docker at all; only gRPC
does, and it links to install.rst rather than duplicating a run
script. Do the same here instead of inventing a Java-specific pattern.

- Add Sonatype snapshot repo to the Maven dependency example

- Use lib/* classpath wildcard (basename-only, not partial filename)
- Clarify -cp applies to javac+java, -Dcuopt.native.dir to java only

- install-selector.js/conf.py: add java iface (container method only,
  reuses the existing image data; no pip/conda package exists)
- quick-start.rst: restructure to match Python/C/Server/CLI shape --
  Installation (selector) + Smoke Test, drop the source-build section
  (covered in java/cuopt/README.md) and the standalone Docker section
  (now covered by the selector); keep Maven since it's Java-specific
  and not in the selector (no stable release yet, no arch axis)
- New Arch row (amd64/arm64), shown only for java+maven, same
  conditional pattern as the existing variant/registry rows
- Stable version resolves to the release version; nightly to
  <next>.0-SNAPSHOT with the Sonatype snapshot repo block
- This will publish alongside the actual release, so a real stable
  Maven Central version will exist by then
- New Component row (Full/Client/Mathopt/Routing) for C's pip/conda
- Client has no cu12/cu13 split (no CUDA/rmm link); mathopt/routing do
- Umbrella libcuopt still works unchanged on both pip and conda --
  this is for callers who only want one piece
- Mention it in cuopt-c/quick-start.rst

Do not expose an unpublished Maven coordinate as stable.

The Java selector exposes Maven, and its stable branch emits V (26.10). Maven Central has no metadata or 26.10.0 POM. The snapshot repository contains only 26.10.0-SNAPSHOT. Therefore, stable Java/Maven installation cannot resolve the generated dependency.

The repository’s Maven convention requires .0, but changing 26.10 to 26.10.0 alone does not fix this while the release is unpublished. Publish 26.10.0 before exposing stable Maven, or hide the stable Maven choice while retaining the working nightly path.

🟡 Minor · Point nightly Maven installs at the published Java snapshot. · install-selector.js:393-415

docs/cuopt/source/_static/install-selector.js:393-415
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Point nightly Maven installs at the published Java snapshot.

When users select Java, Maven, and Nightly, the selector generates 26.12.0-SNAPSHOT. The Java POM and documented Maven dependency use 26.10.0-SNAPSHOT, and the 26.12.0-SNAPSHOT metadata is unavailable. The nightly Maven install therefore fails independently of the stable-coordinate issue.

Suggested fix
-      var mvnVersion = release === "nightly" ? V_NEXT + ".0-SNAPSHOT" : V;
+      var mvnVersion = release === "nightly" ? V + ".0-SNAPSHOT" : V;
