hi there, i was following a tutorial on how to set up slick2d and lwjgl with eclipse and after finishing it and starting on a project i keep getting this message in the console:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no lwjgl in java.library.path
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(Unknown Source)

any idea what i did wrong trying to set up slick?


cheers

That is the error you will get when lwjgl tries to load the system *.dll files (if you're on windows).

You can add the folder with the dll files to your windows PATH environment variable, or somewhere in the startup script, set the java.library.path variable:

-Djava.library.path=C:/lwjgl/native

I am not familiar with this issue in Slick, but I've had the same issue plenty of times. When using Tomcat to load native libraries, I've also had to reboot the computer after setting the path.

If that doesn't work, post some more info. There is no way you're the only person having this problem

Ciao,

cheers for the reply mate, i followed the slick2d tutorial on how to set it up and it looked like it worked until i got a different message:

Are you using 64bit version of Eclipse & Java VM?

 

It looks like Slick2D is trying to load 32bit native dll's.

 

LWJGL does provide 64bit builds; but you will probably need to modify your Slick2D build to load them.

There is a excellent mini series on youtube explaining how to set it up with eclipse and how to use it.
