I have been trying to install JOGL on my system for sometime now. I tried installing using the precompiled binaries using the information from various forums and websites including this one. These are the locations that I have tried installing into:
Jogl.jar:
[jre]/lib/ext/
*.so files:
[jre]/bin
[jre]/lib/bin
[jre]/lib/i386
[jre]/lib/i686 (compiler settings for the system are set to i686)
I have tried all of these at the same time and individually.
I have also tried setting the classpath to find a local directory such as ~/jogl/build/jogl.jar and did the same for the .so files.
I compiled my own binaries at a later point and tried installing them too without success.
Since I run a gentoo box, I have also tried using custom ebuilds from other users which don’t work because there is not a way
to set the jogl.properties nor the glugen.properties. At least, I have not found any.
Is there something that I am missing in my various attempts? I sure hope jogl makes an intaller.
update I hacked the ebuild so that it would at least install the files in what should be the right places on the system for Gentoo.
However, I still cannot compile anything on the system.
Install locations of the files after the ebuild finished:
/usr/share/jogl/lib/jogl.jar
/usr/lib/libjogl.so
My classpath is set as the following
CLASSPATH=/usr/share/jogl/lib/jogl.jar:/usr/lib/libjogl.so
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/share/jogl/lib/jogl.jar:/usr/lib/libjogl.so
When I type $CLASSPATH in the bash shell I get the following:
-bash: /usr/share/jogl/lib/jogl.jar:/usr/lib/libjogl.so: No such file or directory
Any ideas?
