Hi all, I tried to build a very simple launcher (simple c program) for a customer to show how to build a java launcher; launcher loads libjvm.dylib using dlopen() and resolves JNI_CreateJavaVM via dlsym().
On MacOS, when running, in JNI_CreateJavaVM I get the same error as mentioned in JDK-7131356 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7131356> ("No Java runtime present, requesting install"). I was able to work around the issue by locally providing implementations for "JLI_MemAlloc" (and, for balance, realloc and free too) and exporting them, even though the functions make no sense in the launcher. This symbol seems to be a trigger for Apples JavaRuntimeServices framework to stop complaining about missing java runtime. I am not even sure this function is even called by the Apple framework. So my questions are: - does anyone know a better workaround? - can we hope for a fix? Thanks! and Kind Regards, Thomas Stüfe
