java coding for motorola RFid reader model FX7400 on mac/linux

Question

I am trying to code for a motorola RFID reader using java and a mac os.

The error is:

`Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no RFIDAPI3_JNI_HOST in java.library.path
    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1758)
    at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:823)
    at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1045)
    at com.mot.rfid.api3.API3Natives.<clinit>(API3Natives.java:2087)
    at com.mot.rfid.api3.RFIDReader.connect(RFIDReader.java:371)
    at EventHandler.connectToReader(EventHandler.java:94)
    at main.main(main.java:11)`

searching for the solution, looks like I need a RFIDAPI3_JNI_HOST.dll, I have this file I don't know if there is a way to use it on mac/linux systems.

Is there a way to code/debug/run for this RFID reader using mac ? Is the solution find a way to use this .dll on java path on mac ?

Thanks in advance.

I have developed two desk app using .Net, I've never seen any documentation related to Java for this reader (neither any from Motorola). Have you taken a look the release notes? If so, you might have to hard code it. — BrOSs

You cant use this on MAC. This library is JNI layer provider and works only on Windows OS.

I dont think there is library for OSX.

May be you can search for LLRP libs for Mac or linux, since reader is LLRP compatible, it should work.
