I have a default Libgdx Gradle setup, and I need to add my simple text rendering library to it. It consists of a .jar file and native lib file.
This line of build.gradle script seems to work as I would expect, and what it does is add jfreetype.jar java library to my build path.
compile files('../local_lib/jfreetype.jar')
Is there a magic command like this to add native library (.dll to be exact) that is available on my file system and is not Mavenized?
natives "../local_lib/jfreetype32.dll"
This line of code just gives me an error saying that something cannot be found at some repo. I guess there should be a magical line like with .jar file to add native files that are available only on my file system and not on some repo.
You can add a flat directory as a repository in this way, as mentioned in the dependency-management section in the Gradle User Guide .
repositories {
flatDir {
dirs '../local_lib'
}
}
If you want to create your own dependency-configuration natives
, create it like this (more info on the same page ):
configurations {
natives
}
Hope that helps.
The Gradle Natives plugin should do what you want. You can specify a configuration that points at jar files that contain native dll/so. A gradle task "unpackNatives" will then unpack the dll/so into the build dirs.
Depending upon how you launch your application, you may still need to tell the Java runtime where to find the dll/so. There is some info about how this works at the project website:
