most probably resulted from using JNA 5.X-SNAPSHOT with the current gst-java codebase.
The upcoming JNA 5.X version will remove deprecated methods/elements and in addition
will not provide Pointer#SIZE anymore. Pointer#SIZE was part of class loading problems,
leading to deadlocks in the class loader and was removed without deprecation.
The changes are compatible with JNA 4.5.X and the replacements were present for a
long time (10 years + 5 years).
Unittests were run before and after the change and run cleanly.
While testing I noticed, that the version range includes 5.0.0-SNAPSHOT. I have not
looked to deeply into this, but the pom version range most probably should be:
The
-SNAPSHOT
version is always considered smaller as its base version. Giventhat I might be a minority, having JNA snapshots present.
