ZeroMQ's native libraries - can they be moved?

Question

I have built the ZeroMQ native libraries and jar according to the instructions in http://blog.pmorelli.com/getting-zeromq-and-jzmq-running-on-mac-os-x

What I want to do now is to move those files inside my IntelliJ project. This does not seem to work at all. Is it even possible or are they required to stay in /usr/local/lib ?

Answer 1

The libraries can be moved to anywhere you want. Since you re on OSX, you need to set the -Djava.library.path=/lib/local/lib for your application (or where you move the libraries). I usually set the VM option as a default for the Run configurations.
