JNA not working on AIX platform

Question

JNA is working just fine on the Windows side of things. However, when I port it over to AIX and attempt to run my Java program, I get a "Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: jnidispatch (/com/sun/jna/aix-ppc/libjnidis patch.a) not found in resource path" error.

I opened up the jna.jar file to look at the resources, and indeed there is no aix-ppc directory in /com/sun/jna/.

Does anyone know how to add in the resources for the AIX platform or where I can find the necessary documentation for this? The jar is already referenced by the project, and I have Eclipse packaging all the necessary libraries into the runnable jar file.

Thanks!

Answer 1

I have just ported JNA for AIX-PPC and AIX-PPC64 It has been submitted to JNA author (twal) for review and approval. Meanwhile, login http://github.com/SitChenNam/jna and downlaod the /dist/jna.jar.

keep me informed if it works for you

Answer 2

I assume you can take the source and have to compile it for yourself. Hopefully AIX is not much different from Linux in these aspects.
