如何让 jni.h 被找到？

Question

In Ubuntu 12.04, I have jdk7 from sun/oracle installed. When locate jni.h , it prints multiple locations

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/include/jni.h
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_07/include/jni.h
...

In the header file generated by JDK, there is include <jni.h> , and currently it complains

fatal error: jni.h: No such file or directory.

In my Makefile , there is no specification of locations where jni.h is. And I am asking if possible to configure certain system parameter to make path of jni.h (say, /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_07/include/jni.h ) to be known when being compiled.

Answer 1

You have to tell your compiler where is the include directory. Something like this:

gcc -I/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_07/include

But it depends on your makefile.

Answer 2

It needs both jni.h and jni_md.h files, Try this

gcc -I/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_07/include \
  -I/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0_07/include/linux filename.c

This will include both the broad JNI files and the ones necessary for linux

Answer 3

Installing the OpenJDK Development Kit (JDK) should fix your problem.

sudo apt-get install openjdk-X-jdk

This should make you able to compile without problems.

Answer 4

Use the following code:

make -I/usr/lib/jvm/jdk*/include

where jdk* is the directory name of your jdk installation (eg jdk1.7.0).

And there wouldn't be a system-wide solution since the directory name would be different with different builds of JDK downloaded and installed. If you desire an automated solution, please include all commands in a single script and run the said script in Terminal.

Answer 5

I usually define my JAVA_HOME variable like so:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java/

Therein are the necessary include files. I sometimes add the below to my .barshrc when I compile a lot of things that need it.

Answer 6

Setting JAVA_INCLUDE_DIR to where jni.h is located should solve your problem (setting CPPFLAGS did not work for me)

Assuming it is /usr/lib64/java/include;

export JAVA_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/lib64/java/include

Answer 7

For me it was a simple matter of being sure to include the JDK installation (I'd only had the JRE). My R CMD javareconf output was looking like:

Java interpreter : /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
Java version     : 1.8.0_191
Java home path   : /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre
Java compiler    : not present
Java headers gen.:

Done.

And indeed there was no include file in my $JAVA_HOME . Very simple remedy:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre openjdk-8-jdk

(note that this is specifically intended to install the openJDK and not the one from Oracle)

Afterwards all is well:

Answer 8

None of the posted solutions worked for me.

I had to vi into my Makefile and edit the path so that the path to the include folder and the OS subsystem (in my case, -I/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/include/linux ) was correct. This allowed me to run make and make install without issues.

Answer 9

Above answers give you a hardcoded path solution. This is bad on so many levels (java version change, OS change, etc).

Cleaner solution is to add:

JAVA_HOME = $(shell dirname $$(readlink -f $$(which java))|sed 's^jre/bin^^')

near the top of your makefile, then add:

-I$(JAVA_HOME)/include

To your include flags.

I am posting this because I ran into the same problem and spent too much time googling for wrong answers (I am building an app on multiple platforms so the build environment needs to be transportable).

Answer 10

In case you are on Ubuntu:

#X means 6,7,8...
apt install openjdk-X-jdk

Answer 11

我不知道这是否适用于这种情况，但有时文件因未知原因被删除，将其再次复制到相应的文件夹中应该可以解决问题。
