Re: Newbie help required

Netbeans 4.1! That's Bronze Age technology. Do they have a suitable
abacus to run it on? Netbeans 6.1 has come a very long way since 4.1.

Just to comfirm what you ought to be doing (you appear to be doing
this but I'm just checking):

* native libraries must be located in the path defined by the Java
system property "java.library.path". This should include your $PATH
(or %PATH% for those unlucky enough to be using Windows).  The native
libraries (DLLs, or *.so) must be located somewhere on this path.

* the JAR file must be located on the Java classpath.

You can view this property with the following program (which must be
contained in a file called "CheckPaths.java"):

public class CheckPaths {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("java.library.path =3D " +
System.getProperty("java.library.path"));
    System.out.println("java.class.path =3D " +
System.getProperty("java.class.path"));
  }
}
