UnsatisfiedLinkError: no opencv_java249 in java.library.path

Running into some problems making a piece of code run on my mac. Had someone write me an image analysis java app but I keep getting this error when trying to run it on netbeans.

run: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no opencv_java249 in java.library.path at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1857) at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:870) at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1119) at image.prossing.Test.main(Test.java:28) Java Result: 1 BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 0 seconds)

Have the netbeans project, and added the necessary jar files as libraries. The programmer told me to download the correct OpenCV version and copy the opencv.dll file to my java/jre/bin folder. But I cannot find the dll file or the java/jre folder. I know most programming happens on windows for a reason. Hope someone can help me resolve this issue and run this application on my mac.

Here is the first part of the code, the part that is most probably creating the error:

/*
 * To change this license header, choose License Headers in Project Properties.
 * To change this template file, choose Tools | Templates
 * and open the template in the editor.
 */
package image.prossing;

import org.opencv.highgui.Highgui;
import org.opencv.imgproc.Imgproc;

public class Test {

public static void main(String[] args) {

    System.loadLibrary(Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME);

Sorry if it's not that clear, let me know what info to add if something is missing or not clear. Would truly appreciate any help you could give. Sincerely Meir Warcel

Instead of struggling with manual installation of OpenCV libraries I suggest you use OpenCV Java library packaged by OpenPnP (https://github.com/openpnp/opencv) that includes all required DLL.

It does not require additonal steps except of adding it to your build automation tool configuration (Gradle in my case) and adding the following code to load the library:

 System.loadLibrary(org.opencv.core.Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME);

Building on Harsh Vakharia's answer i tried installing OpenCV on my mac with macports:

sudo port install opencv +java
ls /opt/local/share/OpenCV/java
libopencv_java343.dylib opencv-343.jar

To use this library I was hoping to be able to modify the library path at runtime which was discussed in

And ended up with the following helper class and unit test. The code is now part of the

Self Driving RC-Car open Source project in which I am a comitter.

JUnit Test

  @Test
  public void testNativeLibrary() throws Exception {
    if (debug)
      System.out.println(String.format("trying to load native library %s",
          Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME));
    assertTrue(NativeLibrary.getNativeLibPath().isDirectory());
    assertTrue(NativeLibrary.getNativeLib().isFile());
    NativeLibrary.load();
  }

NativeLibrary

package com.bitplan.opencv;

        return;
      }
    }

    // add the new path
    final String[] newPaths = Arrays.copyOf(paths, paths.length + 1);
    newPaths[newPaths.length - 1] = pathToAdd;
    usrPathsField.set(null, newPaths);
  }

  public static File getNativeLib() {
    File nativeLib = new File(getNativeLibPath(),

    return nativeLib;
  }

After Spending a lots of time , and using different suggestions from StackOverflow I managed to get solution for windows. but I am adding a solution for mac as well. hope it should work.

  1. Load your lib as per your system configuration. 

    private static void loadLibraries() {

    try {
        InputStream in = null;
        File fileOut = null;
        String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");
        String opencvpath = System.getProperty("user.dir");
        if(osName.startsWith("Windows")) {
            int bitness = Integer.parseInt(System.getProperty("sun.arch.data.model"));
            if(bitness == 32) {
                opencvpath=opencvpath+"\\opencv\\x86\\";
            }
            else if (bitness == 64) { 
                opencvpath=opencvpath+"\\opencv\\x64\\";
            } else { 
                opencvpath=opencvpath+"\\opencv\\x86\\"; 
            }           
        } 
        else if(osName.equals("Mac OS X")){
            opencvpath = opencvpath+"Your path to .dylib";
        }
        System.out.println(opencvpath);
        System.load(opencvpath + Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME + ".dll");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new RuntimeException("Failed to load opencv native library", e);
    }
}

2.now use this method as per your need

public static void main(String[] args) {
    loadLibraries();
}

Look into your OpenCV directory;

For an example this; (installed using brew install opencv3 --with-java --with-python3)

/usr/local/Cellar/opencv3/XXX/share/OpenCV/java

You will see;

libopencv_javaXXX.so    opencv-XXX.jar

Now that you already have OpenCV's native library for Java (libopencv_javaXXX.so) compiled with you, the only thing left is, mac's dynamic library.

Link libopencv_javaXXX.so to libopencv_javaXXX.dylib;

ln -s libopencv_javaXXX.so libopencv_javaXXX.dylib

Now add /usr/local/Cellar/opencv3/XXX/share/OpenCV/java as Native Library Locations in IntelliJ or something similar in Eclipse.

Or add this to your JVM arguments;

-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/Cellar/opencv3/XXX/share/OpenCV/java

On a mac running OSX Yosemite, I dropped the libopencv_java2412.dylib file into /Library/Java/Extensions and it worked.

After you build opencv, the libopencv_java2412.dylib is generated in /build/lib.

Just add into the path the folder where your opencv_java249.dll is; it would be something like C:\bin\opencv\build\java\x32 or C:\bin\opencv\build\java\x64 depending of your machine architecture. The problem is that java.library.path is actually the path variable.

You cannot just put Windows library (dll file) on Mac and have it running - you need to compile the library for Mac first (or get Mac version of the library).

Please see here for tips on how to do it:

.dll Equivalent on Mac OS X

Exception is occurring from below line of code:

System.loadLibrary(Core.NATIVE_LIBRARY_NAME);

Your program is trying to load a native library by the name of argument in call to loadLibrary method, which it is not able to locate. Make sure that native library (opencv.dll) is placed at one of the locations present in java.library.path system property as JVM looks at these locations for loading any native library (which might not contain 'java/jre/bin').

You can print java.library.path in your program like below:

System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.library.path"));
