JNI under Apache SOAP 2.2 & Tomcat

Hi all,

I have a SOAP app that runs fine under the configuration above under
Win2K.

However I'm porting it to HPUX.  It has a executable DLL called via JNI
under Win2K.  I've recompiled the library under HPUX and created a .so
file.  Unfortunately SOAP can't find it.  I tried setting
LC_LIBRARY_PATH and LIBRARYPATH in the environment, but once again I'm
bitten by the fact that Apache SOAP uses it's own environment and
neither is in the executing environment to the application if I print
out the library path property.

Anyone know what the setting under Apache SOAP or Tomcat is so it'll
load my library?

Shared libraries on HPUX use the .sl file type, not .so (at least HPUX 11,
though I believe all older versions as well).

Note also that they should be compiled PIC, which may requiring changing
the flags passed to the compiler.

Is this a typo?  The relevant environment variables are LD_LIBRARY_PATH (on
most all UNIX platforms), and SHLIB_PATH (on HPUX, which uses two
environment
variables for this purpose).

I'm not sure if any of these points actually relate to your problem.  You've
correctly concluded that getting the environment variables right under
Apache
(or any other web server) can be a pain.  But these points stood out in your
message as other possible problems.
