FYI I have a version of the IBM VME that can show when an exception is thrown (java -Xdump:java:event=throw) and ran it with a simple HelloWorld example. I'll admit I was surprised that the Harmony code isn't throwing any exceptions during start-up, pleasantly surprised that is. So maybe a fuss about nothing :-) Regards, Tim
