RFR(S): JDK-8054194 jstack crash: assert(handle != NULL) failed: JNI handle should not be null

[Staffan Larsen]

Dmitry,

Your changes look good (except missing spaces after commas). But what I do not understand is how this relates to the bug. The code in setImageAndSymbolPath() is not looking at the remote process, it’s just setting up data in the jstack process. How does killing the remote process affect this code? What am I missing?
