    Default JOGL problem

    I have imported and I am attempting to run an example program from NASA World Wind (it's a mapping API). I have also recently upgraded to Java 7.
    My IDE is Springsource (it is built on top of Eclipse, so Eclipse for all intensive purposes) and I am using Maven for dependency management. When running the example, I am getting the following error:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jogl in java.library.path
    	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1886)
    	at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:849)

    I somewhat understand what the exception is telling me: it cannot find jogl. Where I'm lost is that I am not sure WHERE it is looking. I do not know if "java.library.path" is referring to the system JAVA_HOME variable, Eclipse's default java version, or Maven's default java version. They all should be the same, but that is not an assumption I want to lock in until I have a better understanding of what is going on, considering that I just did the update to Java 7's JDK. Does anyone have any ideas? The internet has been pretty ambiguous for my specific situation.
    Also, does anyone know how I would go about getting JOGL? If it was a normal dependency exception, I would just add it to the Maven POM, but this sounds more like a JDK thing than a project-specific dependency thing.
    Any thoughts or ideas?

    Have you downloaded JOGL and added it to the classpath? For the basic configuration, I believe at a minimum it needs 4 jars
    jogl-all.jar
    jogl-all-natives*
    gluegen-rt.jar
    gluegen-rt-natives*

    Default Re: JOGL problem

    I believe the Maven Dependencies for the library is supposed to download jogl automatically. I can confirm that jogl-1.5.jar and gluegen-1.5.jar is in the project's target libs folder after performing a Maven Install. I can also confirm that jogl-1.5 and gluegen-1.5 is included as a Maven Dependency for the project.
    I am trying to get more help from the forums for the library itself, but my email account was auto-banned during registration (god knows why). I am trying to get it unbanned so I can post my question there.

    Might it be that the native libraries can not be found?
    In that case you would need something like this before you use any JOGL classes:
    	public static void setLibraryPath(String path) throws SecurityException, UnsatisfiedLinkError, NoSuchFieldException, IllegalArgumentException, IllegalAccessException {
    		System.setProperty("java.library.path", path);
    		final Field sysPathsField = ClassLoader.class.getDeclaredField("sys_paths");
    		sysPathsField.setAccessible(true);
    		sysPathsField.set(null, null);
    	}
    This is a little hack used to change the library path. I use it all the time when working with LWJGL.
