java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jinput-linux on Ubuntu 12.04LTS

[indarkness]

Hello,

I'm having some issues with a java project in which I use a gamepad controller, thrustmaster firestorm dual analog 3 (usb), under ubuntu 12.04LTS. I know the controller works under ubuntu since I can calibrate and test it. The problem lies on running the jar since I get the following error:

I have created the .jar artifact with IDEA, and I think I have included all the libraries in the .jar, but even so, I get that error. I have also tried to execute my .jar like this


java -jar javadrone2.jar -Djava.library.path=/usr/li/libjinput.so

But with the same output... I believe that I have installed the jinput library, because if I type


:$ locate jinput
...
/usr/lib/jni/libjinput.so
/usr/share/doc/libjinput-java
/usr/share/doc/libjinput-jni
...

What can I do to run my .jar??

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Set up JInput API and Library for Java Development on Mac OS X or Linux Platform (http://yaolddawg.blogspot.pt/2011/08/configure-open-source-controller-jinput.html)

Thanks for your reply!

I have already tried that link, but my issue is that I'm trying to execute the .jar I have created, in which the missing library seems to be included...

You can point java at the native lib manually like this: java -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni -jar yourJar.jar. If that doesn't work, I'm at a loss.
