I'm a Java newbie who just a made a simple Java program using SWT for GUI via eclipse Juno. The code was working and the program was able to run inside eclipse, so I compiled it and made it a runnable jar file so it can be run outside eclipse. I tried to run it using the terminal and this error came up.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load SWT library. Reasons: 
no swt-gtk-4233 in java.library.path
no swt-gtk in java.library.path
Can't load library: /home/abody/.swt/lib/linux/x86_64/libswt-gtk-4233.so
Can't load library: /home/abody/.swt/lib/linux/x86_64/libswt-gtk.so

at org.eclipse.swt.internal.Library.loadLibrary(Library.java:331)

at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.<clinit>(Display.java:133)
at Class1.main(Class1.java:12)

So now it looks like it can't find "libswt-gtk-4233.so" and the other file. However, when I took a look at he ".swt" folder I had an "libswt-gtk-3740.so" not 4233.

So its trying to find a file that is more up-to-date. So what does that mean, should I update SWT? what's going on?
