Even though the same class can be loaded several times in the same JVM through mutliple classloaders, the same does not work for native code -- all native libs can be loaded only once per JVM instance.
The only way for you to work around this known issue is to redesign your test suite such that the native lib is loaded only by a facade class of some kind that is placed in a classloader that is the common parent to all classloaders that JUnit might be using. Placing it in ANT's -classpath or making it accessible to AntClassLoader might work. If you can't do that, you are out of luck. [I would provide more pointed advice except I am not using JUnit myself -- using a better framework at work]. Vlad. Please respond to "Ant Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Ant, Junit and native llibrary Hi, I have a problem when using the optional JUnit task when testing classes that use native code. The first test case of the batch would run fine but any subsequent test case that use the same native library would throw an UnsatisfiedLinkError. Per the error message, I suspect a classloading problem but was not ablt to figure out a workaround. I tried forking but had problems with the classpath. The tests would ultimatly run but would not produce any results. Can someone help? Thanks in advance.
