Description
Native JVM support routines make calls to JNU_ThrowOutOfMemoryError,
e.g. when a malloc has failed.

They must not then go on to assume the Throw... does not return. 
e.g. do not use the value that came back from the failed malloc.

SUGGESTED FIX Appears to be just an oversight in this function: after the JNU_ThrowOutOfMemoryError we need to return. ###@###.### 11/1/04 12:26 GMT

EVALUATION A return must be inserted after JNU_....., reassigning the bug to the for further evaluation and fix. ###@###.### 2005-04-06 21:08:44 GMT For File.deleteOnExit, we should add the return as indicated above. I've filed bug 6271145 to cover the reported AWT issues. ###@###.### 2005-05-16 21:22:09 GMT
