open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hello,

We are migrating an software from python desktop application to java web application. Existing software made calls to Telemac, so some files are in Selafin format. There were a few preprocess operations (interpolation from measured xyz file to fit a standard mesh), so slf file was opened (with custom python code), updated then sent to Telemac.

I cannot find the best way to reproduce this in Java. I identified some possibilities :
- Call our Telemac server through an API with the slf file, to receive an list of xy points
- Try to call Fortran from Java, to access to TelAPI (hard, we have different hardware architectures)
- Try to call Python Telemac code, to open slf file
- Rewrite a custom python module to read slf file
- Use Fudaa framework

Which is the best way up to you, and where can I find samples of code to help me to understand ?
