java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: library “libopencv_java3.so” not found

Question

I am working on an android app that is supposed to detect if a face is in front of the camera and then perform some action based on it. I am using open cv for the face detection but I need some costume C++ functionality. So I am trying to import the OpenCV stuff into my own C++ file myLib.cpp . I then want to call the function defined in myLib in my mainActivity .

When I build the project everything works fine but as soon as I run it on my device (Oneplus x - Android 22) it immediately crashes with the following error message:

my OpenCV build.gradle :

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27



    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 27
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"

        externalNativeBuild {
            cmake {
                cppFlags "-frtti -fexceptions"
                abiFilters 'x86', 'x86_64', 'armeabi', 'armeabi-v7a', 'arm64-v8a', 'mips', 'mips64'
            }
        }

    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    externalNativeBuild {
        cmake {
            path "CMakeLists.txt"
        }
    }
    sourceSets {
        main {
            jni.srcDirs = [jni.srcDirs, 'src/sdk/native/jni/include']
            jniLibs.srcDirs = [jniLibs.srcDirs, 'src/sdk/native/3rdparty/libs', 'src/sdk/native/libs']
        }
    }

}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.1'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1'
}

my OpenCV CMakeLists.txt :

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.4.1)
set(OpenCV_DIR "/Users/lunaticcoding/Documents/OpenCV-android-sdk/sdk/native/jni")
find_package(OpenCV REQUIRED java)
message(STATUS "OpenCV libraries: ${OpenCV_LIBS}")
include_directories(${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS})

The problem is that the libopencv_java3.so does not get created in my build. So the problem must be in the CMakeLists.txt of the OpenCV project. Does anyone know how to export the libopencv_java3.so file into my app build?

Answer 1

You have to install OpenCV Manager on your device.

And initiate manager like this

OpenCVLoader.initAsync(OpenCVLoader.OPENCV_VERSION_2_4_6, this, mLoaderCallback);

BaseLoaderCallback is

private BaseLoaderCallback mLoaderCallback = new BaseLoaderCallback(this) {
        @Override
        public void onManagerConnected(int status) {
            switch (status) {
                case LoaderCallbackInterface.SUCCESS:
                {
                    Log.i(TAG, "OpenCV loaded successfully");
                } break;
                default:
                {
                    super.onManagerConnected(status);
                } break;
            }
        }
    };
