Hi Andrew/Alan, Thanks for responding! I suspect you are right, I'm only building the tl project, which i guess is a partial build? I saw the patch that Andrew mentioned but hadn't put 2 and 2 together that I'd need to build the hotspot part separately first.
I'll try that next, my next post will likely be a q about building the hotspot part or providing the extra info Andrew requested.

Looking at java_lang_Thread.h, the reference that is the closest is Java_SetNativeThreadName, which we think has been incorrectly generated. >> >> I'll confess I haven't caught up with the last couple of months archives, so I'm not sure if I missed a javah issue or something else obvious. >> >> Cheers, >> Martijn > > Martijn - is this a partial build by any chance? I can imagine the above failure if doing a partial build and the import JDK is not in sync. > > -Alan > > >
