Powermock - @SupressStaticInitializationFor is not working

Question

I have a class containing native methods and a static initializer which loads a dll and mocked it with powermock so that the the static initializer should be suppressed and the dll shouldn't be loaded.

The class looks like this:

class UsbCommunication {

    static {
        //load some dll
    }

    public static native void nativeFunction();

}

Under windows the tests are successfully executed using maven (in eclipse as well as cmd). But when I let our CI Server (a unix system) build the project all the tests get errors.

The test looks like this:

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@SuppressStaticInitializationFor
    ("com.printerStatus.UsbCommunication")
public class PrinterTest {
    //Test code
}

Whats confusing for me is the fact that I get a java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError stating that the dll couldn't be loaded despite the fact that the static initializer should be suppressed.

Versions:

• Mockito: 1.9.0
• PowerMock: 1.4.12
• JDK: 1.7

Also I had to add this to the pom.xml as workaround for this problem: PowerMock Issue

<profile>
    <id>SplitVerifier</id>

                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</profile>

This is the stacktrace I get:

Is there any known issue or fix for this problem?

Answer 1

I guess the problem is that you are trying to load a Windows DLL on a Unix machine ;-)
