Bug ID: JDK-4846301 HotSpot crash - SIGSEGV from ClassLoader.defineClass0 in 1.4.2b19

Type: Bug

Sub-Component: runtime
Affected Version: 1.4.2

Not reproducible that I am aware of.

I was running the NetBeans IDE (a post-3.5 development build) using Mantis b19 and running some test suites using the bundled Ant integration. Suddenly HotSpot crashed. (I have run the same build scripts before and since without problems - assuming it is a race condition or similar.)

EVALUATION Nothing real in the attached hs_error log file. Could be xerces or Ant as well. Downgraded because bug submitter can not reproduce this, they suspect it was a race condition that got us here. I'm inclined to beleive this especially with gui apps.

There is no description of how to reproduce the crash so cannot reproduce it yet. ###@###.### 2003-04-11 I have not seen this crash again - still no idea how to reproduce, sorry. ###@###.### 2003-04-14 This is a duplicate of 4927116. ###@###.### 2003-10-10
