title: JNI UnsatisfiedLinkError undefined symbol
body: <p>I am trying to load a .so file (libInfExprParser.so) using JNI. I do not have the source code for this shared object. I am getting the following error:</p>

  <p>Edit:</p>
  
  <p>I ran the following command to get the list of dependent libraries:</p>

  <p><br/> 
  Out of the 6 shared libraries, 5 are present in these locations: /lib and /lib64 <br/>
  libstdc++.so.6 is present in these locations: /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 <br/>
  I don't know which location will be searched for dependent libraries. I tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and executed the jar as follows:<br/></p>
  
  <pre><code>$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib64:/usr/lib64
  $ java -jar -Djava.library.path=/home/tomcat/sahithi/ExprParser:/lib64:/usr/lib64 ExpressionParser.jar
  
  $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib
  $ java -jar -Djava.library.path=/home/tomcat/sahithi/ExprParser:/lib:/usr/lib ExpressionParser.jar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>None of this seemed to work. Got the same error as before. Is there anything else that I can try? Thanks.</p>
