For example, there is a similar #define in > Hotspot's debug.hpp Unfortunately, we do not have a good place to share definitions like this across JDK libraries. :-( The need for that has struck me more than once. For some stuff, we mis-use jni.h. But it would definitely be out of line to add a STATIC_ASSERT there. /Magnus > > Thanks, Roman >
