When the cust. follows below's procedure on windowsXP

is being used to extract the kernel stack trace.

1. Launch WinDbg
2. Using the Task Manager 
	- kill explorer.exe
	- Restart explorer.exe [File -> New Task (run)]

In WinDbg:

3. File -> Attach To a Process; then click on explorer.exe
4. In the command line type: 
	.kframes 100
5. Hit F5 (Go)
6. While explorer.exe is running stop the debugger [Debug -> Break]
   and type in the command line:
        bp kernel32!ExitProcess
7. Hit F5 (Go)
8. Launch the explorer functionnality:
	Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Windows Explorer
9. In the new 'My Documents' popup window go on the Folder subwindow
   and click on MyComputer. This will cause the failure which will bring
   the Java Internal Error Popup with the following question:

CONVERTED DATA BugTraq+ Release Management Values COMMIT TO FIX: 1.4.1_01 mantis FIXED IN: 1.4.1_01 mantis INTEGRATED IN: 1.4.1_01 mantis mantis-b03

EVALUATION So far I could not access the reproducing system (beila.sfbay) successfully thru "vnc" software.Based on the Info available in bugTRAQ the evaluation comments are as below. From the "description" STEP-9 the failure occurs at "ThreadLocalStorage::set_thread()" at the gaurantee statement " guarantee(get_thread() == thread, "must be the same thread, slowly");" The problem may be occuring in the generated code for get_thread() (i.e in ThreadLocalStorage::generate_code_for_get_thread()) In an attempt to reproduce the bug locally I have written a small testcase ("test1.dll" calling "jvm.dll") and "Test.exe" calling "test1.dll" and tested with XP, but I could'nt reproduce the bug. ###@###.### 2002-09-09 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
