------- Comment #5 from thebohemian at gmx dot net 2005-11-05 15:59 ------- Created an attachment (id=10153) --> (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=10153&action=view) preliminary patch - just for review
Here is a first start for a patch that makes access to static methods lazy. The idea is to find out when the target class is missing and put a pointer to a generic method which throws a NoClassDefFoundError on execution into the atable slot. I post this in the hope to receive comments about the approach. Please ignore debugging stuff in link.cc - this is not the final patch. :) One thing however remains to be solved: The function throwing the NoClassDefFoundError cannot provide the information which class definition is missing. Is there a function from which I can get the class name the method belongs to? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24616
