Can not find "javah_g.exe" in my "jdk1.5.0_05" Windows install ...

[for.fun]

Hi everybody,

I just installed the "jdk1.5.0_05" and I want to compile using the
"javah_g.exe" JNI compiler.

This method is documented in my local JDK 1.5 install (do not be
confused with "javah.exe" which is the optimized JNI compiler)

The problem is I do not have any "javah_g.exe" installed on my
harddisk.

Was it removed from the last JDK 1.5 ?
If no, please tell me where I can find it ?


Thanks in advance.

harddisk.

where did you read about this? I have never heard of it.
I have always just used javah.exe.

"javah_g is a non-optimized version of javah suitable for use with debuggers like jdb."

(from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/solaris/javah.html,
although it's not specific to 1.5)

I wonder if the OP really has the development kit installed, or just
the JRE.

I got the JDK 1.5 package (I am not talking about the JRE which has no
"javah" command included) from "java.sun.com".

Here is what my Java binaries dir looks like :


:cd C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05>
:cd bin

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_05\bin>

I can not find any "javah_g.exe" anywhere.
Moreover, I also installed JDK 1.5 on a Solaris 2.8 system and there is
no "javah_g".
My older JDK (1.3, 1.3.1, 1.4.2) does not contain any "javah_g".

I suppose that this file can be downloaded from an independent package.

If anybody has the file, I would like to know which JDK version is he
running.


Thanks in advance.

hmm. It does not appear to be part of jdk 1.5.0_06 on Windows.

I chose the Solaris document out of habit; the same text appears in
the Windows document describing javah. You'll have to ask sun why they
document a non-existent tool.
