I’m attempting to add fmod to a cross-platform project in Visual Studio 2015.

I need to reference fmod.jar in my project, but I’m not sure how.

I’ve added fmod.jar (and the corresponding folders+files) into a folder I’ve called lib, and I’ve updated my project.properties to include jar.libs.dir=lib, but when I attempt to call System.loadLibrary(“fmod”) in my activity, it says it cannot find fmod.so.

I know it’s aware of the fmod.so files during build (they are in each of the corresponding sub-folders: arm64-v8a, armeabi, armeabi-v7a, and x86) because it complains if I move/remove any of them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you provide the LogCat output?

Everything is linking and running fine after updating Visual Studio 2015 to Update 2. There must have been a bug in Update 1.
