Though looking yet again at the libgcj FileDescriptor, I see this: private int fd = -1; If we have a nativeValid method, we also need a native way to compute the value for an invalid fd. We need this since there is a public FileDescriptor constructor which creates an `invalid' instance. So, add something like: static native long nativeGetInvalidDescriptor(); Tom _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
