I'm trying to run a program using Java 3d on a Raspberry Pi and I'm having some problems with the native libraries. I've found a version compiled for ARM on the debian website here
http://packages.debian.org/en/wheezy/armhf/libjava3d-jni/download
I've also tried the 'dfsg-9' version.
When I try and run the program the following output is printed:
java version "1.7.0_40"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_40-b43)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 24.0-b56, mixed mode)
A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
SIGILL (0x4) at pc=0xa6e5b9e2, pid=7251, tid=3057575024
JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (7.0_40-b43) (build 1.7.0_40-b43)
Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (24.0-b56 mixed mode linux-arm )
Problematic frame:
C [libj3dcore-ogl.so+0x69e2] Java_javax_media_j3d_NativePipeline_getAWT+0x11
I don't really have any experience debugging problems to do with native code and am hoping for some advice on how to proceed with ths problem.
Thanks for reading.
Raspberry PI is based on an ARMv6 architecture processor. Debian armhf requires ARMv7 (or later). Hence an illegal instruction exception is exactly what I would expect.
Debian armel distribution works on the RPI. However, if you are adding these packages to something like a raspian installation, that is unlikely to work, and you need to get your packages from a raspian repository.
