Thank you Serguei for the comment. I thought of putting the event log
first but really wanted it to tell which classes were already
redefined. So I decided to improve the error message for printing the
VM_Operation to include the class being redefined.
With the following change, there's a crash during redefinition, the
hs_err_pid file will have:
VM_Operation (0x00007f49a294a400): RedefineClasses, mode: safepoint,
requested by thread 0x00007f499
800e800, redefining class RedefineRunningMethods$B
open webrev at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coleenp/8081219.02/
Tested manually with a ShouldNotReachHere in various places.
Thanks,
Coleen
