NoSuchFieldError: RESOURCE_PREFIX with a maven project using tess4j

问题

tess4j is an OCR packed with native library, I made a maven project to test it, I did add the installation path of maven to eclipse. I added M2_HOME, MAVEN_HOME and JAVA_HOME env variable,

here is my parent pom

and of course, the code (taken from tess4j example)

package test;

import java.io.File;

import net.sourceforge.tess4j.Tesseract;
import net.sourceforge.tess4j.TesseractException;

/**

 */
public class TesseractExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        File imageFile = new File("C:\\DEV\\repo\\ongoing\\capcha-solver\\src\\test\\resources\\random.jpg");
        Tesseract instance = Tesseract.getInstance();  // JNA Interface Mapping
        // Tesseract1 instance = new Tesseract1(); // JNA Direct Mapping

        try {
            String result = instance.doOCR(imageFile);
            System.out.println(result);
        } catch (TesseractException e) {
            System.err.println(e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

When I lauch it I'm getting this exception

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: RESOURCE_PREFIX

I don't know if this is tess4j related or a JNA/JNI problem, as you can see I have a plugin that "should" (never worked with DLLs before) make them work.

Also in the parent pom my plugin are betwen plugin managment tags, I think I should have put them betwen build tags, no?

Any idea?

Thanks.

There was 2 problems

1/ some dlls and files from tess4j had to be copied to the project root directory

2/ tess4j had a transitive dependancy toward com.sun.jna:jna:jar:3.0.9 conflicting with net.java.dev.jna:jna:jar:4.1.0 (also from tess4j) ecluding the 3.0.9 version makes everything work, the RESSOURCE_PREFIX error was coming from that

pom.xml for 32 bit version (you need a 32 bit JVM installed) which takes care of those 2 things, change win32-x86 to win32-x86-64 if you want to use this in 64 bits

The child pom could be easily built without any problems and manually copying libs, this is not TESS4J related. Anyway the jna 3.0.9 could be removed if not needed anymore: https://github.com/nguyenq/tess4j/issues/8

Still, all you have to do to run tess4j is the maven dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.sourceforge.tess4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>tess4j</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.1</version>
</dependency>

and the correct use of the TESS4J-API, for example:

File imageFile = new File("C:\\random.png");
Tesseract instance = Tesseract.getInstance();

//In case you don't have your own tessdata, let it also be extracted for you
File tessDataFolder = LoadLibs.extractTessResources("tessdata");

//Set the tessdata path
instance.setDatapath(tessDataFolder.getAbsolutePath());

    try {
        String result = instance.doOCR(imageFile);
        System.out.println(result);
    } catch (TesseractException e) {
        System.err.println(e.getMessage());
    }

That's it!

回答3:

The problem is caused by the conflict between net.java.dev.jna:jna and com.sun.jna:jna. Both jars contain a class com.sun.jna.Platform. Both jars are declared as tess4j dependencies. To solve this you can omit the second dependency in your pom:

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.sourceforge.tess4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>tess4j</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.1</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>com.sun.jna</groupId>
            <artifactId>jna</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>

回答4:

because the JNA version mismatch. you are using more than one version in class path library. just use one version of JNA.
