I'm a long time java-bridge user, and I've recently needed to get it ported
to FreeBSD 7.0/amd64. I'm current working against php-java-bridge_5.2.2 as
5.3.x seems to have other build failures (and 5.2 will work fine for now.)
The package builds fine out of the box with no modifications, but it does
not detect the JNI extension which is enabled on our JDK. This means that
libnatcJavaBridge.so is not built. Furthermore this issue was only
happening on amd64 boxes -- JNI is detected properly on i386.
I dove into this last night and it turns out that the test for jni in
tests.m4/java_check_jni.m4 calls GCC with no compiler flags. This works
fine on i386, but fails on amd64 because we need the -fPIC flag to build a
shared library correctly. Once fixed, php-java-brdge builds fine and
libnatcJavaBridge.so is built correctly. If I'm not mistaken, it's now
working just fine :)
Below is my patch against php-java-bridge-5.2.2. I'll give this a whirl
against 5.3.x sometime when I have more free time. I'm not entirely sure
this is the best way to accomplish this, but it is working for me on
FreeBSD 7.0 on i386 and amd64 hosts.
For future reference...it doesn't look like anyone uses the SF bug
tracker...is this mailing list the best place to submit patches? If not,
let me know where :)
Cheers,
Patrick van Staveren
