BridJ 0.7.0 hangs on getNativeLibrary, while BridJ 0.6.1 does just fine

Hi Olivier,

It seems that BridJ 0.7.0 has troubles loading certain native libraries, while BridJ 0.6.1 does not. The same behaviour I observe in version 0.6.2 also. Note that this does not happen with all libraries, just with specific ones, particularly with the MATLAB libmx.dylib. For example:

libraryDependencies += "com.nativelibs4java" % "bridj" % "0.7.0"

import org.bridj.BridJ
import org.scalatest.FunSpec
import java.util.logging.Level

class TestBridJ extends FunSpec {

  val mxPath = "/Applications/MATLAB_R2014b.app/bin/maci64/libmx.dylib"

  describe("loading the library") {
    BridJ.setMinLogLevel(Level.ALL)
    println("Loading libMx: " + mxPath)
    BridJ.getNativeLibrary(mxPath)
    println("Loading libMx: Done. ")
  }

}

Running this code makes BridJ hangs on getNativeLibrary. Do you know why this happens? Is there any easy fix or workaround?

Greetings,
Alen

Hey we also just hit this issue. Downgrading to 0.6.1 works. Is there some workaround in 0.7? Otherwise we can work with 0.6.1. But I cannot find documentation for it online. Could you point to the documentation or tell how to generate the documentation from the src download?
