I'm attempting to use DefineClass which is part of the Java Native Interface.
The method takes a const jbyte*
which is a const signed char*
and I'm trying to parse it from a Qt resource. But there has to be something wrong, as ExceptionDescribe()
prints java.lang.ClassFormatError: Truncated class file.
QFile qfile(":/SomeClass.class");
qfile.open(QFile::ReadOnly)
QByteArray qbytes = qfile.readAll();
char *test = qbytes.data();
jbyte *buf = reinterpret_cast<jbyte*>(test);
jclass processorCls = env->DefineClass("example/SomeClass", nullptr, buf, sizeof(buf));
if (env->ExceptionCheck())
{
env->ExceptionDescribe();
env->ExceptionClear();
}
I can verify that the resource works, as I was able to print the content of the qfile
with a method found here.
void read(QString fName)
{
QFile file(fName);
if (!file.open(QFile::ReadOnly | QFile::Text))
{
std::cout << "Could not open the file for reading" << std::endl;
return;
}
QTextStream in(&file);
QString text = in.readAll();
std::cout << text << std::endl;
file.close();
}
The sizeof(buf)
returns the size of the pointer, not the size of the buffer. Please use the qbytes.size()
instead.
