Comment 2 Jan Becicka 2001-08-24 11:56:32 UTC 
This bug occures sometimes (it means, let say once in ten attempts). 
Also the files are compiled, Exception is written to the Output 
window, insofar that user thinks, that files were not compiled.
Comment 3 Ivan Bradac 2001-08-27 09:20:03 UTC 
I can't say for sure that this is a fastjavac bug. This exception is 
caused by win32 CreateProcess call which returns false 
(execution failed) with error  number set in 0 (ERROR_SUCCESS).
Looks like we've faced MS puzzle.
Comment 4 Ivan Bradac 2001-08-27 09:22:08 UTC 
Has been forwarded to the Sun's fastjavac team.
Comment 5 Jan Lahoda 2001-08-28 09:17:04 UTC 
So, I do not think this is problem of fastjavac, the same happens to
me in CPPLite when compiling/linking on W98 (native utility is GNU gcc
by cygwin). I think this is either win or jre problem. I was trying to
investigate it a bit, but without success.
Comment 6 Svata Dedic 2001-09-14 15:56:33 UTC 
Really seems like Win platform bug. Temporarily closing, if some 
solution is found, it will be fixed.
Comment 7 Petr Suchomel 2001-11-30 16:50:05 UTC 
Bug is probably given by bug #4086045 (java bugparade). Thread which 
runs external process has to have NORM_PRIORITY on W98.

Comment 10 _ ttran 2001-11-30 21:55:22 UTC 
To psuchomel: next time please use context diff (cvs diff -c) or
unified diff (cvs diff -u) when producing a patch!!!
Comment 11 _ ttran 2001-12-02 10:08:25 UTC 
I don't see that much problem with the workaround but I don't like the
patch.  I'll find a better way.

Should we try to integrate this fix into 3.3.0?  AFAIK fastjavac is
not the default compiler.  How often does the problem occur on Win98?
