Required for Android to resolve the `Java_*` symbols R.3 synthesises:
without `System.loadLibrary(...)` running before the Activity calls its
first native method, JNI lookup fails with UnsatisfiedLinkError.
The lib name comes from the build's `-o` basename — `/tmp/libsxchess.so`
→ `sxchess` — derived in `Compilation.collectJniMainEmissions` and
threaded through new `jni_java_emit.Options.lib_name`. When `-o` is
unset (or doesn't match `lib*.so`), the emitter omits the static init
and the caller must arrange loading another way.
dex confirmation on the slice 2 smoke: `<clinit>` static constructor
appears alongside `<init>` and `sx_onCreate` — the bytecode invokes
`System.loadLibrary("sxjnimain")` matching `/tmp/libsxjnimain.so`.
131 host / 4 cross / zig build test all green.
Compilation.lowering_jni_main_decls is populated by lowerToIR (iterating
foreign_class_map for is_main && !is_foreign && runtime==jni_class,
deduped by foreign_path); each entry carries the pre-rendered Java source
from jni_java_emit.emitJavaSource.
createApk extended: when the emission list is non-empty, write each
.java under <stage>/java/<pkg>/<Class>.java, javac --release 11 to
<stage>/classes/, d8 --release --lib <android_jar> --output <stage>
to produce <stage>/classes.dex, then zip the .dex into the unaligned
APK at root level. javac discovery: $JAVA_HOME/bin/javac first, then
`which javac`.
Manifest still hardcodes android.app.NativeActivity (slice 3 wires the
user's class name + android:hasCode="true"), so the bundled .dex is
present but unreferenced at runtime. End-to-end verified via dexdump on
the smoke example's APK — Lco/swipelab/sxjnimain/SxApp; extending
NativeActivity shows up in classes.dex. Non-#jni_main APK builds
(99-android-egl-clear.sx) produce the same shape as before.
Cross-compile tuple added for examples/ffi-jni-main-01-emit.sx
(compile-only — APK exercise is manual).
`#jni_call` collapses to a single surface — env is *always* implicit:
either picked up from the lexically-enclosing `#jni_env(env) { ... }`
block's Ref (cheap, register-resident, no TL touch) or from the
runtime's thread-local slot via `sx_jni_env_tl_get()` (one fn call
per dispatch). The explicit-env shape is gone — chess and the
existing tests migrate cleanly by wrapping their helper-fn bodies
in `#jni_env(env) { ... }`.
The TL slot lives outside the user's IR module so the LLVM ORC JIT
can load object files cleanly without `orc_rt` for TLS support:
library/vendors/sx_jni_runtime/sx_jni_env_tl.c:
static _Thread_local void *sx_jni_env_tl_slot;
void *sx_jni_env_tl_get(void) { return sx_jni_env_tl_slot; }
void sx_jni_env_tl_set(void *env) { sx_jni_env_tl_slot = env; }
Linkage:
- sx-the-compiler links the .c file via build.zig so the JIT
process-symbol generator resolves `sx_jni_env_tl_get`/`_set`.
- AOT targets get the same .c file auto-linked via the lowering
pass: when lower touches the TL externs, it sets
`needs_jni_env_tl_runtime`, and `Compilation.lowerToIR` appends a
synthetic `CImportInfo` to `lowering_extra_c_sources` that
`collectCImportSources` merges with user-written ones.
Lowering-side changes:
- `getJniEnvTlFids` lazily declares the two externs (parallel
to `getSelRegisterNameFid`) and flips `needs_jni_env_tl_runtime`.
- `#jni_env(env) { body }` emits save→set→body→restore via three
`call` ops to the externs; the inner body sees env via the
lexical-direct stack.
- `lowerJniCall` resolves env from `jni_env_stack` (top) or the TL
fallback. The explicit-env branch is gone.
- `jni_env_stack_base` tracks per-fn lexical scope so lazy-lowering
a callee doesn't accidentally see the caller's Ref (Refs are only
valid inside one fn's instruction stream).
Test migration (mechanical):
- ffi-jni-call-{01..09}: each helper fn wraps `#jni_call(...)`
bodies in `#jni_env(env) { ... }`. Returning values pass through
the block as an expression — `#jni_env` now also lowers in
expression position.
Verified:
- zig build test + tests/run_examples.sh: 130/130 green.
- tests/cross_compile.sh: 3/3 green.
- Chess APK rebuilt + reinstalled on Pixel. Board renders with
status-bar clearance + info panel intact; no crashes in logcat.
Safe-insets dispatch through `#jni_env` + lexical-direct now
fully exercised end-to-end on real hardware.
- examples/modules/ -> library/modules/ (top-level, no more
symlink hacks in consumer projects)
- compiler discovers stdlib via _NSGetExecutablePath / readlink
/proc/self/exe; searches dev layout (../../library), install
layout (../library), and alongside-binary fallback
- SX_STDLIB_PATH env var overrides for tests / dev convenience
- SX_DEBUG_STDLIB env var dumps the discovery results
- build.zig installs library/ alongside the binary
- Compilation gains stdlib_paths field threaded through resolveImports
- 50 tests pass; consumer projects can now build from any cwd
