Hiya All,
I am trying to figure out what is the best way to make calls I make into a shared library from java mutex'ed. Looking through the VM code for alpha (and
Imtrying to do this under prebeta!) I can see the sysMonitor calls being called
all over all the _really_ serialized calls like read/write etc.. I understand
that Java sets up signal handlers on sigio and others as well as Itimers and in this way "simulates" multi-threaded execution. I need to disable all of
thatcode when I call into some of my routines. Should I use the OS's mutex calls?
Should I disable the mapping to the intrDispatch and signal handling code and
then re-enable it before I leave my routine.. Should I call the sysMonitor
code instead? Thanks in advance.
