tclblend, picking up .so files?

[Neil Davies]

Hi,

my last email is include below. I've now looked into whether the .so files use
ioctl:

nm libtclblend.so | grep ioctl
gives
U ioctl

and

ldd libtclblend.so

gives
libthread.so.1 => /usr/lib/libthread.so.1
libjava.so => /usr/java1.2/jre/lib/sparc/libjava.so
libdl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
libsocket.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
libnsl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
libm.so.1 => /usr/lib/libm.so.1
libc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc.so.1
libjvm.so => /usr/java1.2/jre/lib/sparc/libjvm.so
libmp.so.2 => /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
/usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-5_10/lib/libc_psr.so.1

when a nm is done on these files the following seem to use ioctl:

libc.so
libnsl.so
libsocket.so.1
libjvm.so

In my LD_LIBRARY_PATH I have /usr/lib where these .so files are located, but
still I get the error I describe in my email below. As anyone got any more
suggestions on what i could do to get this working?

Thanks,

Neil.

hi,

I've just found this on the java web site:

http://forum.java.sun.com/read/16791418/qAt1jab-R1H4AAANH#LR

Looks like my problem could be with JNI, any opinions?

I'm using version 1.2.6 of java.

Thanks,

Neil.

Well, did you install the Solaris OS patches? This is clearly
a bug in the Solaris JVM. Perhaps and upgrade to a newer version
would fix this. There is nothing much that can be done for a
JVM bug, and since Java is not "open source", you can't go
in a fix it yourself.

By the way, if you want a good laugh, read this:
