That would not be the correct solution to issue 2. Contrary to popular belief DllMain is _not_ the first piece of code that is called for a dll (That is, it is not the actual dll entry point), that would be DllMainCRTStartup (Or something similar, I forgot the exact name). -entry changes the default name of the initial loader from DllMainCRTStartup to whatever you specified, NOT the DllMain initialization function. Using -entry in this way would royally break AWT and make it non-functional. If that doesn't happen, it would mean we are monumentally lucky, but it would likely still not work properly ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/22790#issuecomment-2552911127
