Mark Payne commented on NIFI-404:
---------------------------------
[~devriesb] the simple answer is that you should be able to just put the
required native libraries in your nar in a directory named "native". Then, any
native library that is loaded will be loaded from there if it is loaded from
within your nar's ClassLoader.
Thanks

> Need to explain that native libraries existing in the native/ directory are
> isolated to that NAR and explain how to add native libraries to that
> directory via Maven.
> Our documentation for how the NAR Classloader works and its purpose does not
> clearly call out the limitations. For example, if one wants to use some
> version of Jetty or logback can they? How so? We need to show a clear diagram
> of how the NAR classloading works and so on so folks can more readily reason
> over it.
> NAR stuff is very powerful and helpful but today it is a bit too magical
> without this complete documentation.
