This is very important, indeed. This wipes my idea of just changing the Utf8 entry of the table. Is this sharing of constant pool entries documented anywhere? When skimmubg through the constant pool chapter of the JVM spec again I couldn't find anything about this. Another question that raises from this: Is the constant pool a 'set', meaning that no duplicates ever occur? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
