[OSX] dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _JVM_FindClassFromCaller about dcevm HOT 10 CLOSED

This seems to be the relevant change in the JDK:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/bsd-port/jdk8/jdk/rev/cb621c3e79a1

from dcevm.

I managed to build a DCEVM targeting a JDK8u25 and it works perfectly! So it would be nice if some new binaries could be released. I suspect this is not an OSX issue so most new JDK8 releases might need new binaries.

hi Erik, I'm in the same boat and would like to use it with JDK8u30. Could you share what you had to do to make a build? Is it as simple as adding an entry in the gradle.properties for the new jdk (hotspotTag=jdk8u30-b99 for e.g.) and just building it?

from dcevm.

Yeah, that's what I did. I had some problems due to incompatibilites with Clang though. The compiler will complain about unknown flags. Simply go into the Makefile and remove those flags at the relevant places.

Or build it with GCC, either on your Mac or on another computer, and just lift the compiled binary over.

from dcevm.

ah got it i'll try that. thanks for the information guys

There is a new fix for new versions >jdk8u20. You shoud uncomment

#hotspotTag=jdk8u5-b13

in gradle.properties before build

from dcevm.

great thanks @skybber. this one right?

#hotspotTag=jdk8u31-b13

i'll check it out

from dcevm.

#hotspotTag=jdk8u31-b13

Compilation failed with wrong argument format error until I manually commented out /hotspot/src/share/vm/prims/jvmtiRedefineClasses2.cpp:1540. Tests with Oracle JDK 1.8u31 ran successfully.

8u45 build is available.
