Run JTape Library on Java (java library path)


I am trying to use the JTape Library to read some data from a DDS4 magnetic tape. I want to use eclipse to run my code under Linux 12.04 LTS

The problem is that I cannot let eclipse reference the TapeLinux.c Library in any way.

PROBLEM:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no TapeLinux in java.library.path
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1886)
at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:849)
at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1088)
at BasicTapeDevice.<clinit>(BasicTapeDevice.java:169)
at TestEOD.main(TestEOD.java:12)

This are my classes:

/* TestEOD.java */

import java.io.*;

public class TestEOD {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
   /* if (args.length != 1) {
        System.err.println("Usage: java TestEOD <path to device>");
        System.exit(1);
    }*/

    BasicTapeDevice d = new BasicTapeDevice("/dev/nst0");

    System.out.print("Rewinding...");
    System.out.flush();
    d.rewind();
    System.out.println("done!");

    System.out.print("Spacing to end of data...");
    System.out.flush();
    d.spaceEOD();
    System.out.println("done!");
}
}

WHAT I HAVE TRIED

I have looked around that what I need is to include the path of the folder which contains the file TapeLinux.c

I have tried all these answers and nothing change

Can you please help me to figure out how I can use JNI in this situation and what I should configure to run my code

Thanks


Solution

  • Since you are on Linux, the message ...main java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no TapeLinux in java... likely means the library named libTapeLinux.so could not be found.

    Seems you are searching for a solution by trying to locate TapeLinux.c and you should be searching for libTapeLinux.so and once you find it make sure libTapeLinux.so is on the load path.
