Re: [ns] JNI and NS

["Mark Butler" <mark_wibble@hotmail.com>]

I'm still having problems. Using the standard build, with no modifications, 
everything compiles, links and runs fine. In /usr/local/lib/tcl8.0 there is 
init.tcl.

However if I put in an extra link to libjava.so in the Makefile, it comes up 
with the error that I mentioned before. init.tcl is still in 
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.0.

From Makefile:
LIB     = \
       -L/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/lib/i386/green_threads -ljava      
-L/ns/ns-allinon
e-2.1b6/tclcl-1.0b9 -ltclcl -L/usr/local/lib -lotcl 
-L/ns/ns-allinone-2.1b6/tk8.
0.4/unix -ltk80 -L/ns/ns-allinone-2.1b6/tcl8.0.4/unix -ltcl80 \
        -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXext -lX11 \
         \
        -lm
#       -L${exec_prefix}/lib \

(The extra library is on the first line, although I have tried it as the 
last library as well with the same results)

Could this be anything to do with linking ? As far as I know, only if the 
library is called should any linking be done anyhow (I don't put in any 
extra code). So I'm at a bit of a loss.
