However, it has nothing to do with AttachThread() and DetachThread()!
The following happens: rexx.exe runs a rexx script which loads BSF4Rexx and then Java. This will cause on the Java side the creation of another RexxInterpreterInstance in the same thread that does not get used at all, as upon return the current executing rexx scripts continues to run. Then, from this script calls to the external function BSF() occur, which means that that function has a callContext availble for further processing (hence no need in this case to execute an AttachThread() and DetachThread()). Not sure, whether this is a bug in the interpreter runtime. It seems that after creating a new Rexx interpreter instance that unused instance later interferes with the original Rexx interpreter instance? ---rony P.S.: This use case is not yet debugged in full, as I run into problems in the unloader, which may have to do with this. Will only be able to trace that further later in the afternoon, or if all goes foul only tomorrow. (And then going after the particular multithreading problem I have been chasing down, in the case of multithreaded executed Rexx scripts that get halted.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
