If you remove the line '-ljli' from binding.gyp this build issue is resolved.

Or if you downgrade jdk to 1.8.

I search for a long time to figure out what jli is for, but couldn't find anything...

I forked, with this change : https://github.com/danielwsutton/node-java/commit/91192d13e6961493eabb96526a9ccc5118005492

However, now i'm running into another error when i go to actually import and use node-java,

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _JNI_CreateJavaVM

based on that i think the '-ljli' is required... so really the only solution i have found that works is downgrading jdx to 1.8....

on JDK 1.8 JRE exist > /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_231.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/jli on JDK 12 it does not... and apparently there never will....

so what exactly can we do here if we want to use node-java on JDK 12+ ?

[danielwsutton]

similar issue, i'll take a look > https://github.com/joeferner/node-java/issues/497

[danielwsutton]

lib_dir="${jre_dir}/jli"

I forked this change, https://github.com/danielwsutton/node-java/commit/1e30ba786a6965fd8df2b643a5d962b06891d4fb

From:

lib_dir="${jre_dir}/jli" 

To:

if [[ -f ${jre_dir}/jli/libjli.dylib ]]; then lib_dir="${jre_dir}"/jli; else lib_dir="${jre_dir}"; fi

So far it seems to be working,

I testing on adoptopenjdk8 and adoptopenjdk12 , your mileage may vary,

I did run into a new issue, but can't seem to repro it locally, only when running it on aws,

  CXX(target) Release/obj.target/nodejavabridge_bindings/src/utils.o
../src/utils.cpp:488:16: error: no member named 'GetBackingStore' in 'v8::ArrayBuffer'
    memcpy(ab->GetBackingStore()->Data(), elems, length);
           ~~  ^

So might not be 100% yet

[danielwsutton]

The above issue with no member named 'GetBackingStore' was resolved by using node 14.8.0

It seems like when you switch to a new version of Java, it forces you into a newer version of Node as well.
