[05:18] <obiter> hi
[05:20] <obiter> has anyone got experience installing java 1.5 and ecclipse and then some additional api (in my case its javax.comm)?
[05:21] <dous> obiter: is there a problem?
[05:22] <obiter> well, as far as I can tell, i have eclipse running 1.5 ok, since some things work, like programs I wrote b4
[05:23] <obiter> but, i cant get the javax.comm to happen
[05:24] <obiter> it has a sample program along with it, which compiles ok, but running it i get : 
[05:24] <obiter> (ecclipse starting again)
[05:24] <obiter> sorry
[05:25] <obiter> rror loading LinuxSerialParallel: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no LinuxSerialParallel in java.library.path
[05:25] <obiter> +e
[05:25] <obiter> which I dont know what to do about
[05:26] <obiter> in fact i dont really understand what its talking about
[05:26] <dous> it uses JNI?
[05:26] <dous> maybe it can't find some .so files that it needs
[05:26] <obiter> alhough I do have libLinuxSerialParallel.so installed as per a guide about it
[05:27] <dous> hmm
[05:27] <obiter> there is a guide, it said put the .so and .so s in /usr/lib, which I did
[05:28] <obiter> it came with the package, from sun
[05:28] <dous> I'm not really an eclipse user but is there a configuration on eclipse about where it finds shared libraries?
[05:29] <obiter> they aren't executable
[05:29] <obiter> but nothing else is either
[05:29] <obiter> no other .so s in that directory
[05:29] <obiter> possibly ... i'll look
[05:30] <dous> I'm just guessing but I guess the docs assume that /usr/lib is searched by default
[05:31] <dous> that's why they asked that the files be placed in /usr/lib
[05:31] <dous> and perhaps eclipse isn't able to find them there because it's not configured to do so
[05:33] <obiter> well its something I can check at least
[05:56] <obiter> i'm not getting far ... I cant yet find where you would add .so libraries.  "shared libraries" expects .jar s
[06:08] <obiter> is it possible there is some conflict between gcj and the sun jdk?
[06:09] <dous> i'm not sure about that, sorry
[06:22] <obiter> BTW, what exactly is a .so library?
[06:23] <obiter> or roughly
[06:28] <dous> do you know .dll files?
[06:30] <obiter> YES
[06:30] <obiter> oops
[06:30] <obiter> yes
[06:30] <obiter> unix binary library?
[06:30] <obiter> another person just told me that
[06:36] <obiter> i've added the /usr/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH ... but I have to reboot to run bashrc

[06:47] <obiter> *sigh*
[06:48] <obiter> i've got java fatigue
[06:48] <obiter> ubuntu fatigue
[06:50] <dous> still didn't work?
[06:51] <obiter> no
[07:00] <obiter> thanks for your efforts :)
