This looks good to me.
> There are two declarations of the to_java_string_fn_t function pointer:
> in jvm.h and locally in javaClasses. I searched the source code for it
> and didn't find any usages but in
> java_lang_String::create_from_platform_dependent_str. The declaration in

Yes, I would suggest dropping the declaration in jvm.h
Cheers
