2006/12/5, Evgueni Brevnov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Here is my understanding....
By looking at classlib's spec and impl for hythread_detach shows that
it is pretty valid to detach any attached thread (not current thread
only). So classlib's implementation does ignore the request to detach
the thread as it suggested in the patch.
From the other hand I would really like to understand why this
functionality is required. Until I see the real use case it seems quit
strange when one thread detaches another and the later one may still
be running.... Alexey, could you share the stack traces for the
failing case...
You can easily reproduce it by running class library tests on J9 with
hythr from DRL VM.
SY, Alexey
