Hi,
Is the sysdepCallMethod for 'arm' (config/arm/common.h) complete
(kaffe-1.0b4 version) ?
Does the 'TestNative.java' run without any problems ?
It looks like there is a problem with this code when trying to invoke
a native method having more than one double sized argument
(call->callsize[i]==2) or a mixture of single and double sized
arguments...
For example, if a native method has 2 arguments (both of type
say 'double' or 'jlong') - 'case 2' fills in the r1 and r2 registers,
followed by 'case 1' which fills in r0 and r1 - thereby overwriting r1 !
also, if the native method expects arguments in r0, r1, r2 and r3
the method may not work since r3 is not filled with proper value...
is this true, or am i missing something ?
P.S: I'm not subscribed to the list, so please send a copy of the reply
to me directly....
thanks,
prashanth
