[Alex de Kruijff]

I've included the java list from FreeBSD.

*My original code works if I do this**:*
---------------------------------------------------
cd /usr/local/openjdk7/jre/lib/amd64;
mv libnet.so libnet.so.bak;
ln -sv /usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64/libnet.so

Then it works. Of course now thereis a problem with JDK7 projects.

*The output you requested:*
---------------------------------------------------
java.version = 1.8.0_51
java.library.path = 
/usr/local/openjdk7/jre/lib/amd64:/usr/local/openjdk7/jre/lib/i386::/usr/local/lib
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH = null

*And the result of -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib*
---------------------------------------------------
No. I've tried al kinds of stuff with this option. I get the same 
exception again:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: 
/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64/libnio.so: 
/usr/local/openjdk7/jre/lib/amd64/libnet.so: version SUNWprivate_1.1 
required by /usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64/libnio.so not defined

I've also tried:
-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64:/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/i386::/usr/local/lib

And:
-Djava.library.path=/usr/local/openjdk8/jre/lib/amd64

But that also doesn't work. Same exception.

P.S. Using the VM option is hard for Maven projects
