"No implementation found for" using NativeActivity

I have a project that I am working on that uses a NativeActivity, along with the android_native_app_glue files to connect to the Java side. I need to access a few non NDK classes through Java and have figured out how to make the calls from C to Java, however I am having issues with the reverse. When calling from Java to C I get "No implementation found for etc...", I have checked most of the pitfalls for this kind of call and believe everything is correct. Here is the Activity class.

package com.JNITest;

import android.app.NativeActivity;
import android.util.Log;

public class JniNativeActivity extends NativeActivity
{
    private static String TAG = "JniNativeActivity";

    public static native void nativeJniCall();

    public JniNativeActivity()
    {
        super();
        Log.v(TAG, "Creating JniNativeActivity");
    }

    public void testCall()
    {
        Log.v(TAG, "Calling native");
        nativeJniCall();
    }
}

Since this is a NativeActivity using the glue code there is no JNI_OnLoad called, the entry point is android_main (which the glue code has setup to run in its own thread).

void android_main(struct android_app* state)
{
    test_call(state->activity);
    etc...
}

...

void test_call(ANativeActivity *activity)
{
    JNIEnv *jni;

    activity->vm->AttachCurrentThread(&jni, NULL);

    jclass activityClass=jni->GetObjectClass(activity->clazz);
    jmethodID testCallId=jni->GetMethodID(activityClass, "testCall", "()V");

    jni->CallVoidMethod(activity->clazz, testCallId);
}

extern "C"
{
    JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_com_JNITest_JniNativeActivity_nativeJniCall(JNIEnv *, jclass)
    {
        LOGI("nativeJniCall");
    }
}

The fact that anything runs implies that the library is loaded, it is also in the log

I have verified its name with javah

I have also checked the library externs and the function is there

I had this issue in another project and created a test app (where the code above is from) so it is not some random unique config problem. I am at a bit of a loss on this one, I am assuming it has some issue with the NativeActivity and glue code (likely the threading) but not sure how to work around it. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok well I found the issue. Seems in this case since the System.loadlibrary is not used with the glue code then the standard lookup mechanism does not work. You have to call RegisterNatives manually (from a valid JNIEnv). So for this case you need to do the following:

void nativeJniCall(JNIEnv *, jclass)
{
    LOGV("nativeJniCall");
}

void android_main(struct android_app* state)
{
    test_call(state->activity);
    etc...
}

...

void test_call(ANativeActivity *activity)
{
    JNIEnv *jni;

    activity->vm->AttachCurrentThread(&jni, NULL);

    jclass activityClass=jni->GetObjectClass(activity->clazz);
    jmethodID testCallId=jni->GetMethodID(activityClass, "testCall", "()V");

    JNINativeMethod methodTable[]=
    {
        {"nativeJniCall", "()V", (void *)nativeJniCall}
    };

    int methodTableSize=sizeof(methodTable)/sizeof(methodTable[0]);

    jni->RegisterNatives(activityClass, methodTable, methodTableSize);

    jni->CallVoidMethod(activity->clazz, testCallId);
}

For production you would cache all the jclass/jmethoidIDs (remember to use NewGlobalRef/DeleteGlobalRef) and only register the the native functions with the class once, but this serves as an example. Hope it saves someone else some time.
