my goal is to make the jodbc driver from sybase working with my gradle build. But the System/bin64/sa_config.sh is not working as expected. This script modifies/ appends the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH (see extraction of script):
# comment the following to unset the SA location.
SQLANY11="/Applications/SQLAnywhere11/System"
export SQLANY11
# comment the following lines to remove SA binaries from your path.
PATH="$SQLANY11/bin64:$SQLANY11/bin32:${PATH:-}"
export PATH
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$SQLANY11/lib32:${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:-}"
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$SQLANY11/lib64:${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:-}"
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
But the libraries inside the lib64 directories can't be found.
To have a easier check what happenes I tried the example code from chilkatsoft. The sybase script uses the possibility 3. I changed the script of chilkatsoft library to check if I can load the chilkasoft driver. But the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH definition is not working (other options like -Djava.library.path="path/to/library" are working with this little example).
I added a subdirectory myTestDir which includes my test script, because the jnilib is always searched at root directory. This is my test script:
#!/bin/bash
java -version
javac -encoding utf8 -classpath ".:./chilkat.jar" Test.java
BASE_PATH="/Users/Wagner/Desktop/testLIB/chilkatJava-9.5.0-jdk6-macosx/"
echo "################## TEST: with environment variables ########################"
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$BASE_PATH
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
echo "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"
java -classpath ".:./chilkat.jar" Test
echo "################## TEST: with absolut path at -Djava.library.path ########################"
java -Djava.library.path=$BASE_PATH -classpath ".:./chilkat.jar" Test
echo "################## TEST: with realative path at -Djava.library.path ########################"
java -Djava.library.path=.. -classpath ".:./chilkat.jar" Test
This shows the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is not added to java.library.pathand it is not working. But using directly the java.library.path is successful. See output:
myTestDir ./myTest.sh

I'm using the current Mac OS X version with all updates (10.11.5). Do someone have a idea to make this work with DYLD_LIBRARY:PATH??
Thanks in advance and best regards, Oli
