Eric,
I did a normal install of the latest Mac beta with no customization.
I just uncompressed and moved; my J directory is ~/j601.
libjnative.jnilib is in the ~/j601 directory:
Michael-Mantis-Computer:~/j601 michaelmanti$ ls | grep lib
libjnative.jnilib
libjpcre.dylib
This is a brand new Intel Mac. (I included the specs in my original e-
mail.)
I, too, was surprised that J worked. I assumed that the Mac version
of J was PowerPC only. I decided to experiment, since I saw mention
on the download/install page about the version of the Mac OS, but not
of the Mac hardware. I assumed that I was going to need to use
BootCamp and boot into WinXP in order to use J on this machine until
you released a MacIntel native version. When it worked, I thought
that perhaps Jsoftware was producing "universal binaries."
I look forward to the MacIntel native version.

The java error report indicates it can't find libjnative.jnilib.
This is the c program that bridges between java and the J Engine
(libj601.dylib).
I am curious about the Mac Intel. Is this one of the brand new Macs
on an intel x86 chip? If so, I am surprised that anything works.
The J Engine is a power pc binary and must be running in an
emulator. Amazing that this works. Note that the libjnative.jnilib
is also a ppc binary and would also need to be run under an
emulator. The java may run with native intel load libraries and
there may be a problem mixing them. There are lots of unknowns (at
least for me) that will take time for us to sort out.
I've assumed you installed the Mac version of the J beta. Or did
you install the Linux version? The fact that the linux intel J
Engine binary would run is even more amazing than the emulator
theory. Please confirm that it is the Mac version of J that you
installed (or not).
The right longer term solution for us is to build a native Mac
Intel verion. But that won't happen until at least after the
offical 601 is out for all currently supported platforms.
If you have the time and interest you might do some research for us
on the web. Is there information about macintel java and ppc binary
dlls.
Another small difference is that you are running the latest java
1.5.0_06 and all our testing so far has been with the 1.4.x
versions. For what it is worth, 1.5.0_06 worked without problems in
the 64 bit version on linux 64.
Ensure that libjnative.jnilib is in your J directory (that is where
the loader will look).
Please confirm that you did a normal install of the latest Mac beta
with no customization. In particular that ~/j601 is the J directory.
