Capturing the first invocation of a method

[Harry Yale]

After all, I was able to make it work in my original way :)
I was overlooking that fact that flag "ProfileInterpreter" being true
caused my code to skipped over for non-native methods.

JVMTI might be an option though I'm not sure I can access the C++
Hotspot code from the JVMTI native
code, which I need to do.

Thanks, Tim and Tom.
