I am using a c native function to change the integer fields of a java class. Basically i want to see how the call by reference can be implemented using JNI. But i am getting the error "No Implementaion found for native". Can anybody help me to solve this problem. I am new to android and java. Below are the codes that i have written. If anybody can change this to satisfy what i want i will definitely appreciate him for help.

java code :

class myclass { 

    int a = 1;
    int b = 2;
    public native void callTochangeJNI();

    static {
        System.loadLibrary("sum_jni");
    }
}

public class sum extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_sum);
        myclass myobject = new myclass(); 
        System.out.println("calling the jni native method");
        myobject.callTochangeJNI();
        System.out.println("returned from jni native method one");
        myobject.callTochangeJNI();
        System.out.format(" a = %d%n....", myobject.a);
        System.out.format("b =  %d%n...", myobject.b);
    }
}   

c native method:

void Java_com_kpit_myfirstndkapp_sum_callTochangeJNI(JNIEnv* env, jobject obj )
{

    jfieldID fid;
    jmethodID mid;
    jclass myclass;

    printf(" Inside the JNI native method \n");

    jclass localRefCls = (*env)->FindClass(env, "java/lang/String");
    myclass = (*env)->NewGlobalRef(env, localRefCls);

    fid = (*env)->GetFieldID(env,myclass," a ","I");
    (*env)->SetIntField(env, obj ,fid,3);

    fid = (*env)->GetFieldID(env,myclass," b ","I");
    (*env)->SetIntField(env, obj ,fid,4);

}

below is the log that i am getting :

The name and signature of your C method is wrong, the name must be Java_PackageName_ClassName_CfunctionName

If you call it from a class named MyClass and its package name is com.kpit.myfirstndkapp then your method must be declared as

 JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_com_kpit_myfirstndkapp_MyClass_callToChangeJNI(...)
