--- Comment #1 from Michael Osipov <micha...@apache.org> --- (In reply to mgrigorov from comment #0) > As explained by Remy Maucherat at > http://markmail.org/message/3fb7o7xljawktilr the native libraries should be > installed at $CATALINA_HOME/bin instead of $CATALINA_HOME/lib folder. > > A Pull Request with the change: > https://github.com/apache/tomcat-native/pull/6 I have complied so much native software myself in the last 5 years on a lot Unix-like OSes that that there are several reasons why this is wrong: * GNU autoconf has well established conventions for libs going to libdir. Don't break the convention. * This is a native library and native libs on Un*x go to libdir * You might want to share the lib with several Tomcat installations, e.g., from /usr/local/lib or /opt/lib. An option I see is to provide multiple layouts like libapr does. Rule of thumb, don't break wellknown conventions just because this is a JNI wrapper. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
