Is there any way we can send you some code so that you can test it out
in the 1.2 release? I have some native threads + JNI code that works under
Solaris and Windows JDK but breaks with the 1.1.7 Native threads release.
I know for a fact that the code is correct but there is some kind of
problem with the 1.1.7 version of the JNI_CreateJavaVM function. I know
you guys do not want to get into a situation where you are testing a lot
of code, but could you consider it for code that is know to not work in
the 1.1.7 release? I really have no way to debug the JNI_CreateJavaVM
function without the source code.
thanks
