  • 0

I would like to create a version of Java’s deflater not synchronizing on its ZStreamRef instance.

I started by copying the code into a Deflater2 class. The code compiles, however, when I create an instance of that class, I get:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: net.dwst.bricolo.ResetGZip.Deflater2.initIDs()V
    at net.mypackage.Deflater2.initIDs(Native Method)
    at net.mypackage.Deflater2.<clinit>(Deflater2.java:65)
    at net.mypackage.SpeedTest.main(SpeedTest.java:13)

How can I create an instance of Deflater2 without triggering this exception?

I am providing the code for Deflater2:

package net.mypackage;

public class Deflater2 {

    private final ZStreamRef zsRef;
    private byte[] buf = new byte[0];
    private int off, len;

    Your problem is not in java code.
    There can be the following reasons:

    1. the library that you are using or other library that your library depends on is not in library path (java.library.path option)

    2. One of the native libraries you try to use does not match your platforms. For example you are running on 32 bit platform and trying to use 64bit library.

    Take a look here: How to add native library to "java.library.path" with Eclipse launch (instead of overriding it)
