Subject: problem when mapping malloc to GC_malloc.
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2009 15:00:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <898285d30906180800q3b5bd3b2h1d4a11d6a8245e34@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

My JNI code includes redefinitions to the malloc, free and realloc
functions (shown below). These functions call GC_malloc, GC_free and
GC_realloc respectively. This is done so that any calls to the malloc
get allocated through the garbage collector. However this is failing
with segfault. Any clues why this does not work ?
I am using this code along with the libgcj library linked dynamically
with my application.

void *malloc(size_t size)
{
        return GC_malloc(size);
}

void *realloc(void *ptr, size_t size)
{
        return GC_realloc(ptr, size);
}

void free(void *ptr)
{
        GC_free(ptr);
}


regards
abhishek
