title: Where to find jni_md.h on CentOS OpenJDK 1.8
body: <p>I am building a java project using JNI and built using native-maven-plugin.</p>
  
  <p>I am able to successfully compile and run my code on my local MacOS environment. However, this will need to run on a CentOS environment too and so I need to compile a .so library along my .jnilib .</p>
  
  <p>I was thinking of copying jni_md.h from the CentOS environment to my local machine and provide the path to that header file to a CentOS compiler on my local machine.</p>
  
  <p>However, I cannot find jni_md.h on the CentOS environment. I installed OpenJDK 1.8 using yum but I did not get an include/ folder in it.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Where can I find a linux version of jni_md.h to use on my local machine?</li>
  <li>Bonus question: would my plan even work and is there a better way to do this?</li>
  </ul>
