Converting YUV to JPEG

Hi!

I have a program which receives raw data from a webcam. The images are in
the YUV 4:2:0 Planar format, and I collect them in a char *. I want to
compress the images in memory, something like this:

    char *imageYUV = ...;
    char *imageJPEG;
    int sizeJPEG = 0;
    compress(imageYUV, imageJPEG, &sizeJPEG);

I am sure that I can do this by means of the primitives form libjpg, but
maybe this has already been implemented in some open source program.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!
Catalin
