Seg faults with RJB

[Antoine Toulme <an...@lunar-ocean.com>]

I could witness today seg faults with RJB.

I think it comes down to a simple explanation. RJB was installed first with
a JDK5. When the user tried to use Buildr with JDK6, he ran into seg faults
since the code had been compiled for an other version of the JDK.

I think the problem was always there and explains quite a lot of the issues
we faced in the past.

I'd like a honest feedback on this: is there more to it than it seems ? Am I
right to suspect that RJB is bound to a particular VM and that we are stuck
with that VM for running Buildr once the compilation occurred ?

Thanks,

Antoine

So maybe this relates to JDK6 32 bits. JDK6 64 bit works well for me and
nobody complains of JDK5.

As far as I know, there is more to it.   For instance, on one machine I've
tried reinstalling RJB with JDK6 to make it work with JDK6 exclusively with
no success.
