EVALUATION See discussion: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-runtime-dev/2009-June/thread.html "JVMTI OOM handling when arrays / objects are too large" The end result is not modifying JVMTI at all hence the move to Hotspot-runtime. This simply causes OnOutOfMemoryError handling to be applied when OOME is thrown due to array size limits being exceeded. webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/OnOutOfMemoryError/ Test program (does as part of Process test code in JDK - see CR 6850958): http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/OnOutOfMemoryError-test/
