Customer claims that 1.4.0_01 does show the problem

Customer needs a fix in 1.3.1.0x release. Please see justification.

Using jvm.dll from JDK/JRE 1.3.1_04 on Windows 2000 causes a process to crash
(due to stack corruption) when the following code is executed:
typedef jint (JNICALL *FuncCreateVM)(JavaVM**, void**, void*);
typedef jint (JNICALL *FuncGetDefaultArgs)(void*);

HINSTANCE hJavaDLL = LoadLibrary("C:\\jdk1.3.1_04\\jre\\bin\\hotjava\\jvm.dll");

//HINSTANCE hJavaDLL = LoadLibrary("C:\\Program Files\\Java\\j2re1.4.0_01\\bin\\client\\jvm.dll");

if (hJavaDLL != NULL)

{

   FuncGetDefaultArgs pArgsFunc =

      (FuncGetDefaultArgs)GetProcAddress(hJavaDLL, "JNI_GetDefaultJavaVMInitArgs");

   if (pArgsFunc != NULL)

   {

      FuncCreateVM pFunc =

         (FuncCreateVM)GetProcAddress(hJavaDLL, "JNI_CreateJavaVM");

      if (pFunc != NULL)

      {

         JavaVM* p_vm = NULL;

         void* p_env = NULL;

         JavaVMInitArgs vm_args;

  

         int result2 =(*pArgsFunc)(&vm_args);

  

         vm_args.version = JNI_VERSION_1_2;

  

         int result =(*pFunc)(&p_vm, &p_env, &vm_args);

      }

   }

}

Reproducible Case:

(1) The attached archive contains two sample Windows shell namespace extension projects and one Windows console application
that can be used to drive them. Case #1 is encapsulated by the "SampView" project and its source code.

To run the SampView sample, please do the following:

1. Register this Windows shell namespace extension by double-clicking SampView\restoreSampView.reg

2. In a Command Window, "ConsoleAppLoader\Debug\ConsoleAppLoader.exe SampView"

3. Note the crash

4. To unregister this Windows shell namespace extension, launch RegEdit and delete the following Windows Registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{E2CB71D0-D2DC-11D1-B022-00600893AD51}
