>> Has the behavior of javah changed in Java 7? I'm using the<javah>  task in Ant to generate some JNI headers. When I run my Ant script under Java 6, I only get headers for classes I explicitly specify. Under Java 7, I get headers for all of my specified classes as well as any nested classes defined by those classes, even though the nested classes themselves don't specify any native methods.

So, to confirm - the fact that these headers were are generated in Java 6 but are generated in Java 7 is likely a bug?
