We have couple (about two hundreds) of intermittent JDWP test failures that have to be investigated. Some of them might be related to NPT initialization and deinitialization code (no strong evidence, just a speculation for today). Besides that there are couple of places in NPT-related code that should be re-evaluated and probably fixed. So I have an impression that if I clean it up today it saves me debugging efforts later. -Dmitry -- Dmitry Samersoff Oracle Java development team, Saint Petersburg, Russia * I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the sources.
