        public static void loadSystem(java.lang.String name)
                       throws java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError
        Loads a shared library using System.load(java.lang.String).
        Parameters:
        name - the library name. If not an absolute path, it must be the plain library name, without an OS specific prefix or file extension (e.g. GL, not libGL.so)
        Throws:
        java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError - if the library could not be loaded

      • loadNative

        Loads a shared library using OS-specific APIs (e.g. LoadLibrary or dlopen).
        Parameters:
        name - the library name. OS-specific prefixes and file extensions are optional (e.g. both "GL" and "libGL.so.1" are valid on Linux)
        Returns:
        the shared library
        Throws:
        java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError - if the library could not be loaded

      • loadNative

        public static SharedLibrary loadNative(Configuration<java.lang.String> name,
                                       java.lang.String... defaultNames)
        Loads a shared library using Library.loadNative(String) with the name specified by name. If name is not set, Library.loadNative(String) will be called with the names specified by defaultNames. The first successful will be returned.
        Parameters:
        name - a Configuration that specifies the library name
        defaultNames - the default library name
        Returns:
        the shared library
        Throws:
        java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError - if the library could not be loaded
