Larry McCay commented on KNOX-868:
----------------------------------
Interesting improvement...
Thanks for the idea.
Do you plan to try it out and provide a patch and/or instructions?
How do we go about testing such a patch in order to commit it and test during
release time?
We don't ship any native libraries.
This patch will need to provide some detailed instructions for leveraging the
feature with a publicly available library, I think.
> Allow native library auto included through java.library.path property

> Currently user can add custom jars by copying it into $GATEWAY_HOME/ext
> directory. However, there is no easy way to include native library (.so).
> The use case is: a lot of authentication mechanism libraries are implemented
> using C/C++ library. And user may want to integrate it with Knox.
> One of the option could be: user can add .so files into
> $GATEWAY_HOME/ext/native directory. At the same time, gateway service can
> include that directory through java.library.path property during start up.
> We can potentially use launcher.cfg to support it.
> Any other alternative approach?
