package GDAL JAVA Binding and native library in a SWT plugin

问题

I want to package GDAL and its JAVA binding into a SWT plug-in. (P.S. GDAL use swig to generate Java binding)

I have all necessary native libraries and want to pack them into my Eclipse plug-in to let other people use it without installing GDAL on their computer.

The problem is that the JAVA Binding (or native lib itself) will lookup necessary native libraries from PATH (Window) or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux) instead looking up those libs in a relative location. Furthermore, GDAL will look up some necessary geo definition data from the environment variable GDAL_DATA as well.

How can I solve those two problems to make a portable SWT plug-in? 1) package platform specific native libs 2) some environment variable look-up

It seems that eclipse cannot resolve dependent libs without having PATH set. Bundle-NativeCode (see below) did not work.

If I try to directly call System.Library("SomethingNotExist") in my plugin; then I get

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no SomethingNotExist in java.library.path

If I call System.Library("SomethingDoesExist") in my plugin, then I get

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: SomethingDoesExist.dll: Can't find dependent libraries

The file structure in my plug-in

org.gdal/
   + src/
   + nativelib/
      + linux32/
        + ...
      + linux32/
        + ...
      + win32/
        + ...
      + win64/
        + ...
   + META-INF
      + MANIFEST.MF
   + gdal-data/
   + gdal.jar
   + build.properties

The build.properties for this Plug-in

source.. = src/
output.. = bin/
bin.includes = META-INF/,\
               .,\
               gdal.jar,\
               gdal-data/,\
               nativelib/
