jni getMethodID returns Null when used to get ID of constructor


I have assigned jvm to global variable in a function using

int status = (*jenv)->GetJavaVM(jenv, &jvm);
if(status != 0) {
    printf(" Fail!\n");
         }

classNameC is a global variable, and its class has no constructor.Then in other function, i am using it like this:

JNIEnv *env;
printf("starting function\n");
(*jvm)->AttachCurrentThread(jvm, (void **)&env, NULL);
printf("thread attached\n");
jclass local = (*env)->FindClass(env,classNameC);
if(local!=NULL)
{
printf("1st class found\n");
}
jmethodID constructor=(*env)->GetMethodID(env,local,"<init>","()V");
if(constructor==NULL)
{
printf("1st Constructoris NULL\n");
}
else
{
printf("1st Constructor created\n");
}
jobject classObject=(*env)->NewObject(env,local,constructor);
if(classObject==NULL)
{
printf("1st object is  NULL\n");
}
else
{
printf("1st object is  created\n");
}

jclass local1 = (*env)->FindClass(env,"SWIGTYPE_p_void");
if(local1==NULL)
{
printf("SWIGTYPE p void class is NULL\n");
}
else
{
printf("SWIGTYPE p void class created\n");
}

This constructor has 2 parametrs one is long and next is boolean. This class has 2 constructors other one has no parameters and initializing members with 0.

jmethodID constructor1=(*env)->GetMethodID(env,local1,"<init>","(J;Z;)V");
if(constructor1==NULL)
{
printf("SWIGTYPE p void constructor is NULL\n");
}
else
{
printf("SWIGTYPE p void constructor is created\n");
}

when i run it, it successfully printed upto SWIGTYPE p void class created and SWIGTYPE p void constructor is NULL and then it gave this error:

Solution

  • You find constructor method ID; but you claim that this class has no constructor. This means, that GetMethodID(env,local,"<init>","(V)V") will return 0. To specify a signature for a method with no parameters, use "()V".
