UnsatisfiedLinkError when installing the app over the previous version

[Gulfas]

Hello,

We are working on an update for our game, the game is mostly implemented in C/C++ but it doesn't use the NativeActivity mechanism, it's a JAVA activity calling native methods through JNI.

This new version of the game works well if it's installed on a device where the previous version of the game is not installed or was removed. However if we install the game on a device where the previous version was already installed we always get the following error:

12-14 13:16:14.260: W/dalvikvm(6041): Exception Ljava/lang/UnsatisfiedLinkError; thrown while initializing Lcom/sigames/fmh2013/PISDLIB;

It's very difficult to deduce what the problem is from this callstack. Is there any way to get more detailed information about the UnsatisfiedLinkError, for example why findLibrary returned null?

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Pablo

Did you place your library under <PROJECT>/libs/armeabi?

Do you see it in your APK?

Hi,

The same APK works fine if I don't install it over a previous version of the game.

The problem only happens when I install the new version of my game (4.0.1) over the previous version (4.0). In this case I always get the unresolved link error.

However if I remove the old version of my game (4.0) and then install the new one (4.0.1), everything works fine. 

Unfortunately the error message from logcat doesn't tell me much.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Pablo.
