Description
The tool "Incident Manager" is used internally at Sun to process
the web bug reports.   It's written in Java.  

If I run Incident Manager with HotSpot, and paste into a text
window, the application crashes: 

#
# HotSpot Virtual Machine Error, Fatal Error
#
# Fatal: Bug in native code: jfieldID class must match object
# /usr/re/hotspot/src/solaris_only/hotspot_beta1_jvmg/build/solaris/../../src/share/vm/prims/jni.cpp, 63


To duplicate, 

% setenv INCIDENT_HOME /net/webbugs.eng/usr/webbugs/testPackages
% ~mrm/bin/Incident_g 

login with your usual Sun ID and passwd (NIS passwd) 

click on "search" 

copy&paste into any open text field, for example, the field 
labeled "Company"



Comments
EVALUATION Bug in JDK 1.2 X clipboard. I expect the classic VM dumps core or produces garbage in the same situation. This is a big reason HotSpot on JDK1.2.1 is important.
