I am trying to compile the following project:
https://github.com/entropia/libsocket-can-java
I always get this error message? Does anyone know
It seems so. #include "jni_md.h"
would include the file in the same directory as jni.h
, but it is placed in linux
folder.
In previous JDK versions it seems that file and another were place in include/linux
folder, but there are symlinks to both files in include
.
So you can just create symlinks to both files:
$ sudo ln -s /opt/jdk1.8.0_11/include/linux/jni_md.h /opt/jdk1.8.0_11/include/jni_md.h
$ sudo ln -s /opt/jdk1.8.0_11/include/linux/jawt_md.h /opt/jdk1.8.0_11/include/jawt_md.h
As stated in the comments by Absurd-Mind and Mikkel, there is also the option to add that path to the makefile compiler options:
-I$(JAVA_HOME)/include/linux/
It is also possible that there are more than one JDK
that have been deployed, and the one that is linked to $JAVA_HOME
is not the correct one. You need to update $JAVA_HOME
to that that contains the jni_md.h
file.
No, this is not a bug. The correct way to solve this issue is to provide -I${JAVA_HOME}/include -I${JAVA_HOME}/include/linux
compiler options. This way your build scripts remain portable.
The OP is facing the problem on Linux, but if anybody is facing this problem on windows, please add following compiler options.
-I"%JAVA_HOME%\include" -I"%JAVA_HOME%\include\win32"
where JAVA_HOME points to your JDK installation directory, usually 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.{7|8}.{}_{xx}'
