[CMake] CMake and swig problem

[Ian.Appru at ubs.com]

I am trying to load the swig generated lib into the java java gen'ed
layer so I think pretty std usage.

The JDK I am using - 1.4.2_06 - completely fails to see MyJNI.so on
solaris/linux, when using loadLibrary("MyJNI") - if I rename the lib
libMyJNI.so it works fine.

I think there was some discussion in java circles of trying to load the
library without the lib prefix if the system dep name mapping failed but
doesn't look like that is implemented in my jdk version.

Fair point about the loadable modules tho - sometimes have a bit of c++
centric view.

Ian

Well, on some systems loadable modules are not libraries, and can not
even be linked to.  

Does the java stuff with the load not work without the lib prefix?
Or are you trying to link to the swig module for something else?
