[feature PR] ARM support

Opened this issue · 3 comments

Would you be interested in a PR to:

  1. Allow your tool to load a library if the system is ARM (tested on Raspberry Pi 4B). Additional code to NativeLibraryLoader.java file:
if (isRpiARM()) {
      platform = Platform.LINUX32;
} else if {
// same code...
private static boolean isRpiARM() {
      return SystemUtils.IS_OS_LINUX && (SystemUtils.OS_ARCH.equals("arm"));
}
  1. Change the native word from the project name to nat because with the introduction of Java automatic name in JDK9, native is a protected word and can not be used in the module name (that is automatically generated from the project name by the maven compiler plugin).

Sorry for the late reply, but yes a PR would be appreciated.

ARM would have to also consider Apple Silicon. I'm currently using

private static boolean isARM_64()
{
	String os = System.getProperty("os.arch");
	return os.contains("aarch") && os.contains("64");
}

as an additional function, so I guess this should be renamed to isApple_64 and for RPi have it as isARM_64?

We're working on a new release. I just wait for an arm system to be available
