Brandon DeVries commented on NIFI-404:
--------------------------------------

[~markap14], where in the NAR is the "native" directory supposed to go?  I put 
it at "foo.nar/META-INF/bundled-dependencies/native", then 
"foo.nar/META-INF/native", then just "foo.nar/native"... nothing (except a 
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError").  If I take that same native directory and 
drop in in the lib directory, and add

{code}
java.arg.11=-Djava.library.path=./lib/native
{code}

as before, that works.  So... thoughts?

> addition to ClassLoader isolation

> 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.
