Xuggle and java library path

问题

I'm writing a screencast application in Java. I decided to use Xuggle to do it and I followed up the installation instructions on the xuggle wiki.

I set up the PATH environment with %XUGGLE_HOME%\bin and %XUGGLE_HOME%\lib. Everything seems OK. I made this application as a RCP plugin. I tried it on the "RCP-mail" template and the plugin is working and the video is generated correctly.

But when I decided to use it on a "real" application, the plug-in crashed with a strange error message:

Starting Capture

But this strange because the java.library.path is well defined:

logger.info(System.getProperty("java.library.path"));

returns

What I'm missing to make the plug-in work with this application? Is this issue due to the fact that the application uses other native libraries such as 3D-dll?

Here is the code used to make the screencast video:

RecordHandler.java:
    private void startRecording() {

    Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(RecordHandler.class.getName());
    logger.info(System.getProperty("java.library.path"));

    // Initialize framesQueue
    framesQueue =  new LinkedBlockingQueue<BufferedImage>();
    // Initialize the capture thread
    captureThread =  new ScreenCapturer();
    captureThread.setCaptureFramesQueue(framesQueue);

    // Initialize the recorder
    encoderThread = new FrameEncoder("test.mp4");
    encoderThread.setCapturedFramesQueue(framesQueue);      

    // Start capture
    captureThread.start();
    // wait for the Queue to be feed before encoding
    try {
        Thread.sleep(1000L);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
    }
    encoderThread.start();
}

ScreenCapturer.java:

    @Override
public void run() {
    // Retrieve the application main window's shell
    Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {

        @Override
        public void run() {
            appShell = Display.getCurrent().getActiveShell();
        }
    });

    isRunning = true;
    System.out.println("Starting Capture");
    for (numberOfFramesTaken = 0; isRunning && numberOfFramesTaken <= IVideoEncoderConfiguration.MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES; numberOfFramesTaken++) {
        try {
            takeScreenShot();
            Thread.sleep(IVideoEncoderConfiguration.CAPTURE_TIME_INTERVAL_MILLIS);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        }
    }
    System.out.println("Capture has ended");
    System.out.println("Number of frames taken: "
            + numberOfFramesTaken);
}

/**
 * Take a screen capture and store it in the capturedFramesQueue
 */
private void takeScreenShot() {
    Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            if (appShell != null) {
                Rectangle bounds = appShell.getBounds();
                java.awt.Rectangle awtBounds =  new java.awt.Rectangle(bounds.x, bounds.y, bounds.width, bounds.height);
                final BufferedImage screenCapture =  robot.createScreenCapture(awtBounds);
                try {
                    capturedFramesQueue.put(screenCapture);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                }
            }
        }
    });
}

FrameEncoder.java:

public void run() {
    isRunning = true;
    String outFile = outputdirectoryPath + outputFileName;
    // First, let's make a IMediaWriter to write the file.
    final IMediaWriter writer = ToolFactory.makeWriter(outFile);
    // Retrieve the first frame to guess video dimensions
    BufferedImage firstFrame = null;
    try {
        firstFrame = capturedFramesQueue.take();
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
    }
    if (firstFrame == null) {
        return;
    }
    // We tell it we're going to add one video stream, with id 0,
    // at position 0, and that it will have a fixed frame rate of
    // FRAME_RATE.
    writer.addVideoStream(0, 0,
            IVideoEncoderConfiguration.FRAME_RATE,
            firstFrame.getWidth(), firstFrame.getHeight());

    long startTime = System.nanoTime();
    for (numberOfFramesRecorded = 0; isRunning
            && numberOfFramesRecorded <= IVideoEncoderConfiguration.MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES; numberOfFramesRecorded++) {
        // Retrieve the captured frame
        try {
            final BufferedImage currentFrame = convertToType(capturedFramesQueue.take(), BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR);
            // encode the next frame
            writer.encodeVideo(0, currentFrame, System.nanoTime() - startTime,
                    TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);
            // sleep, time depending of FRAME_RATE
            Thread.sleep(IVideoEncoderConfiguration.CAPTURE_TIME_INTERVAL_MILLIS);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        }
    }
    // Get the remaining frame on the queue
    Collection<BufferedImage> frames = new LinkedList<BufferedImage>();
    capturedFramesQueue.drainTo(frames, IVideoEncoderConfiguration.MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_FRAMES - numberOfFramesRecorded);
    for (BufferedImage frame : frames) {
        BufferedImage currentFrame = convertToType(frame, BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR);
        writer.encodeVideo(0, currentFrame, System.nanoTime() - startTime,
                TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);
    }
    // close the MediaWriter, write the trailer if needed
    writer.close();
}

回答1:

It's a little late I know, but the problem is that Xuggler requires ALL THE DLLs to be in the operating system load-path environment, not just the java.library.path

That means that all DLLs that install with Xuggle (for example, libavcodec.dll) need to be in the %PATH% environment variable of the process that launched Java.
