Hi, it's been a while I used this the last time. Dll is just a synonym for any linked library :-)
Back to your questions, well as I pointed out, since libraries in general can't be unloaded unless you destroy the classloader which is taken care by the OSGi framework and only happens if there are no references to it anymore. That's why the library will be "renamed" inside your bundle. So to get a hold of your library I can't remember right now, if a) you need to load the library by the new name b) still can do a loadLibrary as before. That's the part you need to experiment. But I'm certain the library will have some renaming to it, though I'm not sure if there is some "magic symlink" to the library so a loadLibrary(name) actually works ... regards, Achim 2015-02-03 14:11 GMT+01:00 Philomatic <[email protected]>: > Hi Achim, > > thanks for pointing out the issue with dynamic linked libraries, indeed I > did not pay attention to the magic word "dynamic" in the blog post.
