Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-8187:
------------------------------------------
I guess you didn't bother actually reading that JIRA. Here, I'll summarize for
you:
Deveraj opened this jira to track future work. The primarily thought was
actually asking the JVM where the libraries are via system properties.
HADOOP-8737 is a pretty terrible hack that only works on some platforms. By
asking the JVM, one should only need to port to a JVM rather than an entire
OS*. Sample code I wrote a while back for Sun's JVM exists in HADOOP-6924.
* - As usual, OS X is a bit of a troublemaker since (by default) libjvm.dylib
is only 32-bit on at least Snow Leopard in some JVM versions. (I'll leave it
as an exercise for the reader to figure out why.) But by passing by the
appropriate flags at compile time, it will get built the fat binary version of
libjvm and the problem goes away.
