There was a pull request on github that fixed this issue for me. https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/pull/753 It appears to have been committed to the main repo. So it should be resolved.

I am trying to follow the guide here: http://docs.opencv.org/2.4.4-beta/doc/tutorials/introduction/desktop_java/java_dev_intro.html

I can follow the instructions exactly I type these exact commands into a command window:

git clone git://github.com/Itseez/opencv.git
cd opencv
git checkout 2.4
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF ..
make

It will get about 80 percent done then offer this error:

[ 86%] Building CXX object modules/java/CMakeFiles/opencv_java.dir/contrib.cpp.o
Linking CXX shared library ../../lib/libopencv_java244.dylib
ld: unknown option: -whole-archive
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Anyone know how to fix this or is it just a bug. If i instead clone to 2.4.3 and manually enable java it appears to work... This is my first project trying to use the library so I'm not exactly sure what to expect.

I have java-7-oracle installed on my ubuntu box and had the same problem. So I ran:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/

then I ran the cmake command again. And it appears to get further. I am still running into issues while making, but they me be unrelated.
