Dear community,

i am trying to get libpostal build running within the great javacpp presets but i get stuck on the bootstrap.sh containing:

#!/bin/sh
autoreconf -fi --warning=no-portability

the default instruction work:

git clone https://github.com/openvenues/libpostal
cd libpostal
cp -rf windows/* ./
./bootstrap.sh
./configure --disable-data-download
make -j4
make install

cpp build.sh sofar:

#!/bin/bash
# This file is meant to be included by the parent cppbuild.sh script
if [[ -z "$PLATFORM" ]]; then
    pushd ..
    bash cppbuild.sh "$@" libpostal
    popd
    exit
fi

echo "downloading libpostal"

LIBPOSTAL_VERSION=master
download https://github.com/openvenues/libpostal/archive/$LIBPOSTAL_VERSION.tar.gz libpostal-$LIBPOSTAL_VERSION.tar.gz

echo "unpacking libpostal"

mkdir -p $PLATFORM
cd $PLATFORM
tar -xzvf ../libpostal-$LIBPOSTAL_VERSION.tar.gz
cd libpostal-$LIBPOSTAL_VERSION


case $PLATFORM in
    windows-x86_64)
    export CC="gcc -m64"
    echo "Starting windows-x86_64 build"
    cp -rf windows/* ./
    echo $PWD
    ./bootstrap.sh
    #./configure --datadir=/c
    #./configure --disable-data-download
    #make -j4
    #make install
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Error: Platform \"$PLATFORM\" is not supported"
        ;;
esac

cd ../..

Could you try to follow these instructions?

I followed these instructions, even started my IDEA editor from msys, and i can build other presets successfully, even from my IDE on windows 10.

Try it from the command line. IntelliJ IDEA uses its own version of Maven...

IDEA is setup with an external maven via the system PATH, MSYS console gives the same output:

If i dot the C build as documented by libpostal from my msys all works well.

That's an issue with libpostal. Make sure to install all packages here:

Like I said, cppbuild.sh is just a build script. It doesn't do anything
special. Just don't use it, install libpostal on your system, and use it
like that.

I did thought of that, but it is not very slick :)
Seems you do not have any interest in libpostal entering the presets?

Sorry for the misunderstanding. That's a different story then. Yes,
we'll need a build script for that. There's probably some package that
is missing, for example:

Seems that the path somehow bend within the preset build, the file '/msys64/usr/share/aclocal/xsize.m4' does exist.

I did the pacman update, restarted msys and did mvn clean install on my libpostal modul on the console with the same result :(

I completely reinstalled all components as admin, just to be sure, with the same result. I am out of ideas why this excisting file is not found:

If i do the build until it exists on ./bootstrap.sh, do this manually on the console, and then do a maven install for the rest of the build, the build succeeds.

So this happens only when executing from Maven? Maven runs outside
MSYS2, and by default executes "bash" from the system PATH, so if you
have a "bash" other than MSYS2 on your system, that will cause problems...

I remember having issues like that, but I've fixed it a long time ago.
Your fork is a few months old. Please try again with a more recent

Not quite, it produces a dll with a dependency on the msys2 dll. I have no idea how to solve this besides adding the finished ddl.

Don't worry about that, we can bundle that DLL if needed.

What happens if you run "bash cppbuild.sh install", without Maven?

You'll need to include other header files than "libpostal.h" that
contain necessary definitions. This isn't done automatically to avoid
including system files.

It builds just fine, also the produced executable is functional.

If i take a look at jpostal it only includes the jPostal, jni, and default headers:

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <string.h>

#include <jni.h>

#include <libpostal/libpostal.h>

Where do i find what headers to include?

Right, looks like it doesn't include anything else:
https://github.com/openvenues/libpostal/blob/master/src/libpostal.h

Ok, next thing, you'll need to add the following so that it doesn't try
to consider it as a constant variable:
new Info("LIBPOSTAL_EXPORT").cppTypes().annotations()

The easiest thing to do is copy that file into cppbuild/lib after the build in cppbuild.sh.

I do not understand, it seems that the microsoft compiler is not generating the needed jni dll. and it is not throwing any exceptions.

I think the SizeTpointer gives a allergic reaction?

If i put in the string as Bytepointer i get a response for parse address:

boolean setup1 = libpostal.libpostal_setup();

boolean setup3 = libpostal.libpostal_setup_datadir("C:/libpostal".getBytes(Charset.forName("UTF-8")));

boolean setup2 = libpostal.libpostal_setup_parser();
libpostal.libpostal_address_parser_options_t options = libpostal.libpostal_get_address_parser_default_options();
String address = "781 Franklin Ave Crown Heights Brooklyn NYC NY 11216 USA";
BytePointer bytePointer = new BytePointer(address, "UTF-8");
libpostal.libpostal_address_parser_response_t response = libpostal.libpostal_parse_address(bytePointer, options);
libpostal.libpostal_teardown();
libpostal.libpostal_teardown_parser();

boolean setup3 = libpostal.libpostal_setup_datadir(trainingDataPath);
boolean setup2 = libpostal.libpostal_setup_language_classifier();

You could, but there should already be overloaded methods using String.

Nope, no String but byte[] and JavaCCP types. Just committed the last version: libpostal

If i use the byte[] methodes it hangs or produces a access violation. How can i suppress generating these methods in javacpp-presets?

We can add more Info for that. By default it maps `const char*` to
String, but we can do the same with `char*`:
https://github.com/bytedeco/javacpp/blob/master/src/main/java/org/bytedeco/javacpp/tools/InfoMap.java#L89

Note that String is immutable, so you don't want to get rid of the
BytePointer and byte[] ones.

Following result, i am to stupid for this:

public void map(InfoMap infoMap) {
    infoMap.put(new Info("LIBPOSTAL_EXPORT").cppTypes().annotations())
    .put(new Info("char").valueTypes("byte").pointerTypes("@Cast(\"char*\") BytePointer", "String"));
}

We'll need a cast for the String as well in the case, so this should work:

.put(new Info("char").cast().valueTypes("byte").pointerTypes("BytePointer", "String"))

The compiler says:

C:\msys64\home\betzm\javacpp-presets-libpostal\libpostal\target\classes\org\bytedeco\javacpp\jnilibpostal.cpp(2606): error C2440: '=': cannot convert from 'char **' to 'const char *'
C:\msys64\home\betzm\javacpp-presets-libpostal\libpostal\target\classes\org\bytedeco\javacpp\jnilibpostal.cpp(2606): note: Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast

Something more got stuck...

Can you show me the Java declaration this corresponds to?

It is targeted on the following methods where instead of byte array there should be a cast to String to replace byte[] input and byte[] address:

public static native @Cast("char**") PointerPointer libpostal_expand_address(@Cast("char*") BytePointer input, @ByVal libpostal_normalize_options_t options, @Cast("size_t*") SizeTPointer n);
public static native @Cast("char**") @ByPtrPtr ByteBuffer libpostal_expand_address(@Cast("char*") ByteBuffer input, @ByVal libpostal_normalize_options_t options, @Cast("size_t*") SizeTPointer n);
public static native @Cast("char**") @ByPtrPtr byte[] libpostal_expand_address(@Cast("char*") byte[] input, @ByVal libpostal_normalize_options_t options, @Cast("size_t*") SizeTPointer n);


public static native libpostal_address_parser_response_t libpostal_parse_address(@Cast("char*") BytePointer address, @ByVal libpostal_address_parser_options_t options);
public static native libpostal_address_parser_response_t libpostal_parse_address(@Cast("char*") ByteBuffer address, @ByVal libpostal_address_parser_options_t options);
public static native libpostal_address_parser_response_t libpostal_parse_address(@Cast("char*") byte[] address, @ByVal libpostal_address_parser_options_t options);

Could you post the details of that along with the other issue you're having with autoconf on the GitHub issue page to make that easier to track?

How is it different from the previous build?

The libpostal-1.dll was not in the jar. I now do a rename of the dll like this:

cp src/.libs/libpostal-1.dll ../bin/libpostal.dll

But now i am getting null pointers on return values in my test project.
Somehow my build produces a invalid library as opposed to the downloaded appveyor build:

windows-x86_64)
cp -rf windows/* ./
cwd=$(pwd)
bash -lc "cd $cwd && autoreconf -fi --warning=no-portability"
#./configure --datadir=/c [...some dir with a few GB of space...]
./configure --disable-data-download
make -j4
make install
lib.exe /def:libpostal.def /out:libpostal.lib /machine:x64
mkdir -p ../bin
mkdir -p ../lib
mkdir -p ../include
cp src/.libs/libpostal-1.dll ../bin/libpostal.dll
cp libpostal.lib ../lib
cp src/libpostal.h ../include
    ;;
*)

I did a rebuild with .configure --datadir=/c to test the executables from the console and now all is fine. Console is working and my maven test project also. I am not found of such behavior.
