it seems 3.5.0 is not working

[Farkas Levente]

hi,
as described here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13096741/jna-capturing-every-window-java-lang-abstractmethoderror
we've got the same exception on both linux and windows. so we currently
can't use 3.5.0 (neither 3.4.0 on windows which is another bug which was
fixed in 3.5.0). it'd be useful to fix it asap since imho it's a
unusable release.
regards.

I think it's just the platform.jar that is not up to date. Try to pick up any of the demo-<...>.jar in

jna/dist/jnacontrib, they contains the latest platform.jar classes.

Looks like the platform.jar in https://github.com/twall/jna/tree/3.5.0/dist is old. It hasn't been updated with the JNA release.

Dan, you missed updating it in the release - can you please check this out?

Thanks,

dB.

it's not that simple. i build it on linux myself (while also package for
fedora, rhel etc). it's give the same error in the link.
so it's not the reason (or not the only reason)!

i look into it but it's not contain any jar....

[Dan Rollo]

The 3.5.0 local build I did is long gone. How about I quickly release a
3.5.1?

In case it helps for testing, there are 3.5.1-SNAPSHOT jars available here:
https://maven.java.net/content/groups/public/

[Farkas Levente]

i prefer to build it myself (at least the linux version). anyway did you
find the reason and fix it?

anyway i'm not a github guru. is there any way to compare/diff 3.5.0 tag
and the head through the web?

ok i find the compare view and it seems there is no code difference:-(

I believe the platform.jar in the github repo was not properly updated during the release.

The released version is available from https://maven.java.net/index.html#nexus-search;quick%7Ejna.

[Dan Rollo]

Very odd. So we all (myself included) assumed I'd made a stupid user trick, and missed the platform.jar during the 'dist/*' check-in stage.

However, I'm going through the steps (in my fork) to roll a 3.5.1 release, and guess what: after 'ant dist' target completes, platform.jar has not been rebuilt. That's why it didn't get checked in, because it was not yet changed/rebuilt.

For now, I'm just adding a step to the release docs run 'ant clean dist' instead of 'ant dist'. I'm not sure why that jar is not getting rebuilt. I wonder if adding a manifest to platform.jar would help?

Odder still, I'm not sure why the platform.jar was rebuilt during publishing to the maven staging repo...

I have to go assault some squash with knives now, but please feel free to give the release steps a run through, and see if you can shed any light on this.

ok so when i build on linux until 3.4.0:

ant -Dcflags_extra.native="%{optflags}" -Ddynlink.native=true
-Dnomixedjar.native=true jar contrib-jars javadoc

but no it's no longer build in 3.5.0 so i've to change it to:

ant -Dcflags_extra.native="%{optflags}" -Ddynlink.native=true
-Dnomixedjar.native=true javadoc jar contrib-jars

and the resulted jar also gives the same error.

probably just that the dist/platform.jar target's dependencies aren't set up correctly.

I always do "ant clean dist", so I've never noticed before.
