Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * Developers with a native or hybrid Android application       *
  * trying to use JSONStore or FIPS on 64 bit devices, both      *
  * 64-bit x86 architectures and 64-bit ARM architectures.       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * When trying to use JSONStore or FIPS on 64-bit devices,      *
  * developers will see the following error:                     *
  * "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: "..." is     *
  * 32-bit instead of 64-bit", and JSONStore or FIPS will not    *
  * work.                                                        *

Problem conclusion

• The error is now fixed. After applying the ifix containing this
  APAR, developers must check their Android applications, and
  check that under src/main/libs or src/main/jniLibs, there are no
  folders for x86_64 and arm64-v8a. If those folders exist, delete
  them completely. Leave all other folders there. This is
  something that will only have to be done once, if applicable.
