Subclipse not recognizing my JavaHL


I keep getting the following error:

Failed to load JavaHL Library.
These are the errors that were encountered:
no libsvnjavahl-1 in java.library.path
no svnjavahl-1 in java.library.path
no svnjavahl in java.library.path
java.library.path = "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni"

Although the library path is correct:

user@localhost /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni $ ls -l
total 336
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     24 Apr  6 02:06 libatk-wrapper.so -> libatk-wrapper.so.0.0.18
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     24 Apr  6 02:06 libatk-wrapper.so.0 -> libatk-wrapper.so.0.0.18
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  85168 Sep 20  2012 libatk-wrapper.so.0.0.18
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     23 Sep 28  2012 libsvnjavahl-1.so -> libsvnjavahl-1.so.0.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     23 Sep 28  2012 libsvnjavahl-1.so.0 -> libsvnjavahl-1.so.0.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 256104 Sep 28  2012 libsvnjavahl-1.so.0.0.0

The above was installed with apt-get install libsvn-java on ubuntu 12.10. Basically this package here.

The installed version of svn is 1.7.5.

The installed version of subclipse is 1.8.19.

I understand that the required svn version for subclipse 1.8.x to work is 1.7.x.

How can I make subclipse recognize my installed JavaHL library?


Solution

  • Okay I have found it...

    The problem was in my eclipse.ini file, which looked like this:

    -startup
    plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar
    --launcher.library
    plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.200.v20120913-144807
    -showsplash
    org.eclipse.platform
    --launcher.XXMaxPermSize
    256m
    --launcher.defaultAction
    openFile
    -Xms40m
    -Xmx512m
    -vmargs
    -Djava.library.path="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni"
    

    I had to remove the extra quotes: -Djava.library.path="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni" to -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/jni.

    That fixed it.
