[Aegisvm-devel] patch to jni.c

[Gildas B. <gb...@al...>]

Hi,

As I told you in my last mail (which btw is still waiting for moderator 
approval due to my silly mistake of using a different mail account) I did 
quite a few modifications to the JNI code in AegisVM.

The first part of the changes consist of code factorisation which does 
reduce the size of jni.c by a fair amount. For instance all the 
ae_jni_Call*Method() functions are quite similar and thus it is possible to 
generate them all from a single macro, a new ae_jni_CallMethodA() also 
regroups all the common code for all the ae_jni_Call* variants (including 
static and virtual).

The second part of the changes is an attempt to implement more of the JNI 
functions. These changes need to be reviewed carefully as I'm not entirely 
sure I understood all the subtilities involved, even though they all seem 
to work correctly.
List of implemented functions:
- all the ae_jni_Call##JType##Method*()
- ae_jni_GetFieldID()
- all the ae_jni_Get/Set##JType##Field()
- ae_jni_GetStringUTFLength()
- ae_jni_GetStringUTFChars()
- ae_jni_ReleaseStringUTFChars()
- ae_jni_GetArrayLength()

If you have some criticism about this patch or needs me to rework some of 
it, do not hesitate to tell me.

Regards,
