sapjco3 for arm - eclipse adt issue

[pawelwiejkut]

Hello,

For now, it seems that the native setup of Eclipse on MacOS M1 is not possible because of the missing sapjco3. Is SAP planning to release it in the future?

ABAP communication layer is not configured properly. Consult the installation guide or download page for further details.

JCo initialization failed with java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no sapjco3 in java.library.path: /Users/pawelwiejkut/Library/Java/Extensions:/Library/Java/Extensions:/Network/Library/Java/Extensions:/System/Library/Java/Extensions:/usr/lib/java:.

Issue details:

Eclipse: Version: 2021-09 (4.21)

ADT: 2021-09

Hello Pawet,

so far, there is no version of JCo for ARM on MacOS. This means, that you need to run ADT with a x86_64 JDK and rely on Rosetta. Whether an ARM variant will be offered in the future cannot be told here in SCN. Sorry.

Best regards,
Markus

Hello Markus,

just to get it right:

- can I install the ARM version of Eclipse on my MBP and point to a x86_64 JDK?

- or do I have to install the Intel version of Eclipse too?

BR,

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

You need to install the x86_64 version of Eclipse as well.

Hi Markus,

Thank you for the clarification!
That's the explanation why I was not able to get it working.

Best regards,
Dominik
