Missing dependency ‘object scala.native in compiler mirror’

I used scala-compiler.jar to compile an embedded Scala program This scala program imports a class written using jni

class test{
  def test(ctx: ContractContext): ActionResult = {
    val s = new DllTest
    s.loadLibrary()
    print(s.intMethod(5))
    null
  }
}

DllTest is a jni application

error: error while loading Object, Missing dependency 'object scala.native in compiler mirror', required by /modules/java.base/java/lang/Object.class

Failed to initialize compiler: object scala in compiler mirror not found.
** Note that as of 2.8 scala does not assume use of the java classpath.
** For the old behavior pass -usejavacp to scala, or if using a Settings
** object programmatically, settings.usejavacp.value = true.

Anyone knows the reason? And how to solve the problem?

It works fine in the main function

  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {

    //Create system instance
    val s = new DllTest
    s.loadLibrary()
    print(s.intMethod(5))
......

According to

object scala in compiler mirror not found - running Scala compiler programmatically

"scala.runtime in compiler mirror not found" but working when started with -Xbootclasspath/p:scala-library.jar

Why am I getting "object scala.runtime in compiler mirror not found." with scala-maven-plugin when dependency is upgraded?

most probably you should try to switch on settings.usejavacp.value = true as written in the error message. How to feed this setting to the compiler depends on how you run it.

See examples how to run the compiler programmatically in

Thanks for the answer, I have set the appropriate options in my code

val classCache = mutable.Map[String, Class[_]]()
private val settings = new Settings()
  settings.deprecation.value = true // enable detailed deprecation warnings
  settings.unchecked.value = true // enable detailed unchecked warnings
  settings.outputDirs.setSingleOutput(target)
  settings.usejavacp.value = true
  settings.classpath.append(getSourcePath())

  private val global = new Global(settings)
  private lazy val run = new global.Run
  val classLoader = new AbstractFileClassLoader(target, this.getClass.getClassLoader)

My testing environment is a system that uploads scala code and compiles and runs scala code. So I can't provide mcve. I submitted some scala programs that worked fine without importing jni, but whenever I tried to include jni code in my scala code, I got an error saying that scala.native was not found Here is my program

class DllTest {

  @native def intMethod(n: Int): Int

  def loadLibrary(): Unit = {
    System.load("D:\\Idea\\scala_test\\libtest.dll")
  }
}

It is then imported into the embedded scala code

import rep.DllTest
  def test(ctx: ContractContext): ActionResult = {
    val s = new DllTest
    s.loadLibrary()
    print(s.intMethod(5))
    null
  }

Is scala-compiler.jar unable to compile native methods? Moreover, the imported code works fine in the main system function, but scala-compiler.jar throws an error

After debugging, the code that throws the exception looks like this enter image description here
