<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Indeed I was lacking the -fno-strict-aliasing switch in the C++ flags
in<br>
my<br>
Android.mk file.<br>
<br>
However, I've added this switch to both LOCAL_CFLAGS and LOCAL_CPPFLAGS<br>
for the libgdaljni.so build and I continue to get the error during<br>
execution.<br>
<br>
To add some more info to my original message, the actual error comes<br>
from<br>
within Java_org_gdal_gdal_gdalJNI_MajorObject_1GetMetadataItem_1_1SWIG10<br>
in<br>
gdal_wrap.cpp on the call to jenv->GetStringUTFChars(jarg2, 0). First
a<br>
JNI<br>
warning is issued, then the access violation appears to occur before<br>
that<br>
function can return, or at least before a debug statement I've added<br>
after<br>
the call can send its output to the Android LogCat output.<br>
<br>
The error that's issued is related to jarg2 which is supposed to be a<br>
jstring, versus the jarg1 argument you mentioned which requires the<br>
upcast to GDALMajorObjectShadow.<br>
<br>
I think I'll need to further debug the pointers that are being passed<br>
down to the *GetMetadataItem*1SWIG10* function. None of them look<br>
outrageous at first glance.<br>
<br>
Again, there's every reason to believe I'm missing something that's<br>
otherwise obvious to the experts so please feel free to continue<br>
sending ideas my way!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
