Where is the entry point of java calls

[Colin(Du Li)]

Hi, Karen,

Thanks for your prompt reply!
What I wanna do is to trap all the java method call, and pick out the native
calls (JNI). I still have two questions.
1. How can I read the generated bytecodes. When I use Vi to open a .class
file, it's not very readable. 
2. Does every method call for another java method can be trapped at
invoke_virtual/special/static in bytecodeInterpreter.cpp?

Thanks again.

Colin.
