Unable to find lib #552
Description
Hi,
I am new to zig and NIF, and am having a little trouble with loading a compiled c lib with Zigler.
I am attaching my repo for reference
https://github.com/AdwayKasture/jace
NIF code snippet
defmodule Jace.Bridge do
@lib {:priv, "lib/libopentui.so"}
@header {:priv, "include"}
use Zig,otp_app: :jace,
c: [link_lib: @lib,include_dirs: @header],
resources: [:RendererResource,
:OptimizedBufferResource,
:TextBufferResource],
nifs: [...]
~Z"""
The weird thing is the ide throws no error, if i reference a function in zig code which is not in header it throws an error (header is loaded correctly).
If i pass incompatible lib file it throws error (lib file loaded correctly).
However when I call the function through iex
i get
07:58:07.740 [error] loading module Elixir.Jace.Bridge {:load_failed, ~c"Failed to load NIF library /home/archon/work/jace/_build/test/lib/jace/priv/lib/Elixir.Jace.Bridge: 'libopentui.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'"}same issue for test

test "opentui" do

end
end
else

endThanks your contribution and time.
Incase you can point me to a repo for reference that would also be helpful.
Also happy to contribute in whatever way I can.
