That''s the problem. If I include the static block in a servlet and
exute it, everything works fine. But if I make changes to the servlet
and reload it using the manager/reload function and call the servlet
again it crashes. Thats why I am trying to put the the loadLibrary
call further up in the hierarchy.

This is the piece of code I used in the servlet instead of the static
block to load InitMapscript
################
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
{
try
{
Class.forName("InitMapserver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
throw new ServletException(ex.getMessage() + "Class InitMapserver
not found");
file://System.err.println(ex.getMessage() + "Class InitMapserver
not found");
}
}
################
and I think this call does not load the native library correctly
because I get a UnsatisfiedLinkError exception after calling the first
native method.
Cheers Andy
