Hi all, I'm back from holiday and am building the latest ( http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk) project for our 3rd Java User Group OpenJDK hack day. I've run across an error that I haven't been able to resolve.
.. .. ../../../build/linux-i586/tmp/java/java.lang/java/obj/Thread.o:(.data.rel+0xbc): undefined reference to `JVM_SetNativeThreadName' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [../../../build/linux-i586/lib/i386/libjava.so] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/openjdk/sources/jdk/make/java/java' make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/openjdk/sources/jdk/make/java' make: *** [all] Error 1 I've posted a more verbose version of the error at http://pastebin.com/9exQpFkq I got a bit lost in the C++ spelunking, so Ben Evans gave me a hand and we think we've tracked it down to the fact that the reference to JVM_SetNativeThreadName is not in java_lang_Thread.h (a generated header). Looking at java_lang_Thread.h, the reference that is the closest is Java_SetNativeThreadName, which we think has been incorrectly generated. I'll confess I haven't caught up with the last couple of months archives, so I'm not sure if I missed a javah issue or something else obvious. Cheers, Martijn
