Mikhail Fursov :
Pavel,
I do this workaround for my local needs.
The problem in your solution is dll name: gcv5
I can built my own version of GC - gcv5_plus_some_features and put it into
any directory I want (-Dvm.gc_dll ?)
Should I fix the Java sources in this case?
The possible solution could be to set up system property: "-
Dgcv5.my_current_location" and read it from Java, but I see 2 problems:
1) A component (GC) must know its library name
2) "java.library.path" must be modified before the load and restored after
the load, because System.loadLibrary is not able to load library with fully
qualified path.
Any other ideas?
Yeap.
The following addresse both your issues.
class GCv5Magics {
static {
String gcPath = System.getProperty("vm.gc_dll");
if (gcPath == null) {
System.load(gcPath);
}
else {
System.loadLibrary("gc.dll");
}
}
}

Thanks,
Alex

Mikhail,
You certainly can. Just add System.loadLibrary(<component name>) to the
static initialization block of a class, which declares that method and
call
<clinit> for such class.
Example.
----------------------
Component: gcv5.dll
Class, implementing fast path magics: GCv5Magics
Class source:
class GCv5Magics {
static {
System.loadLibrary("gcv5.dll");
}
// ... the rest of magics for GC v5
}
Regards,
Pavel.
P.S. <clinit> is not called for such classes now, but magics are all
something new to add to VM.
