Hi.
I am investigating how Kaffe allocates objects.=20
I have a class with a main function. That class creates a new object. =
The class for that object is defined in another .java file.

In object.c, the function newObject(...) allocates the object. But I =
can't find out who is calling newObject(...) or when. When is the =
constructor called? Other constructors for other objects are called in =
execute_java_constructor in support.c, but not the constructor for the =
object I defined. Where is this done?

Can anyone help me out?
