Access Violations occuring in the jvm.dll

843798Aug 12 2009 — edited Aug 13 2009

After native debugging of the javaw and java process on Windows XP using WinDebug it turns out, that the jvm.dll throws many "Access Violations" (First Chance := Signal + Handled by the JVM). We are using a COM based library that is Terminating after some "Access Violation" occur in the Java VM. I read that the Java VM using "page faults" (lead to "Access Violations") as a null pointer check. So without having the PDB's (Debug Symbols) for the Java VM and/or having the source code of the jvm.dll it's impossible to determine whether an "Access Violation" was expected or not.

Where can I obtain the PDB's (using symbol server) for the Java VM on Windows XP?

Is there any option to reduce the probability of an "Access Violation" (like reducing the Garbage Collection)?


Thanks in advance
