` below env variable already set but still facing this issue. JAVA_HOME= /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/include/

I tried debugging by following steps mentioned in https://github.com/openvenues/jpostal/issues/14 but no luck yet.

@albarrentine in configure I can see following line.

# Apple Java headers are inside the Xcode bundle.

Which is not always the case. I installed JDK from Oracle. Installed location

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home

java --version
java 11.0.18 2023-01-17 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.18+9-LTS-195)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.18+9-LTS-195, mixed mode)

MacOS Ventura 13.3.1 (a)

echo $JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home/include/

[SahibYar]

Okay in configure.ac file I replaced (hardcoded JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS) following lines

AX_JNI_INCLUDE_DIR

for JNI_INCLUDE_DIR in $JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS
do
    CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I$JNI_INCLUDE_DIR"
done

With

# Add JNI include paths
AC_MSG_CHECKING([for JNI include paths])
JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home/include/"
JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS="$JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS -I/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home/include/darwin"
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I$JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS"
AC_MSG_RESULT([$JNI_INCLUDE_DIRS])

And it compiled successfully

Thanks for the guidance here, I used this thread to get up and running initially on a M1. I kept running with it and just opened a PR for better support on Mac (and just about everywhere else as well). This project doesn't appear too active and it's unclear when or if that PR will be merged. If you're interested, feel free to hit our fork directly: https://github.com/Qualytics/jpostal
