I have written a jvmti agent to trace method invocations. I code it with C and jvmti and jni functions. Our os is Fedora 15 and the agent is compiled into a .so
file. When I test it with a non-trivial java program, it crashes and gives the following error message:
A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x4e8e4e28, pid=24294, tid=3065949040.
JRE version: 6.0_32-b05.
Java VM: Java HotSpot (TM) Server VM (20.7-b02 mixed mode linux-x86).
