Hi Elmar,
in all my hs_err_pid<PID>.log files there are lines like
#
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
#
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x6d74cba7, pid=3860, tid=3936
#
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_06-b05 mixed mode, sharing)
# Problematic frame:
# V [jvm.dll+0x6cba7]
#
For the offset there are two or three different, but nearly values.
"our" dlls are not listed at that time. But the threads which closes the
dlls are existent and the state is "_thread_in_native".
I think the crash is not in the method FreeLibrary else the VM does later
some thing assumptioning that the dll is loaded and ready todo something.
May be it can be also in the kernel32.dll.
One thing what assist my thinking is the case that I have no crash since I
have changed it from FreeLibraryAndExitThread (handle, 0); to a second
process which removes the dlls.
OK, that's only hints. But what should we do? I have no time to debug
the VM (the code is really hard to read). It seems so, that Javasoft will
not change the problem (no reaction since over a year). In the OS there
can not be a bug because they produce only features, no bugs.
Cheers
Klaus
