Per $SUBJ, I was looking for guidance from the Java community about embedding .so files within JARs. I found these docs: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Java/#_applicability Which seem to have conflicting commentary on this: - A Java package uses JNI if it contains a .so file. Note that this file can be embedded within JAR files themselves. - JNI shared objects MUST be placed in %{_libdir}/%{name} As long as the JAR for the application is played in %{_libdir}/%{name}/%{name}.jar, does this mean that the .so can be placed within the JAR? The benefit to .so-in-JAR is that the JAR always knows where to find the .so, even if the user installs multiple versions of the same package, or, worse, copies JARs from different systems around. Wondering what the community's thoughts are, Alex _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
