One of our customers (a mac user) has recently reported an issue that appears to stem from somewhere in execution trace of a JDIC/native Desktop call.

The issue we’re having is exactly similar to this thread in the JDIC forum which unfortunately hasn’t been answered.

Our code is doing the following:

try
{
Desktop.open(localFile);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
// some generic exception handling
}

It looks like the JdicInitException is happening on the first call to Desktop.open, but the call actually succeeds and the document is opened. I’ve actually been able to make 6 or 7 calls to Desktop.open() without a problem. However, eventually the application does lockup (without dumping another exception stacktrace).

The stack trace is as follows:

org.jdesktop.jdic.init.JdicInitException: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: getEnv
at org.jdesktop.jdic.init.JdicManager.initShareNative(Unknown Source)
at org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.internal.ServiceManager.(Unknown Source)

Anyone else run into a similar issue and have a solution? The client is running JDK 1.4.2_09. Also, does anyone have an OS X binary for JDIC newer than 0.8.6.x ?
