[libvirt] Re: Release of libvirt-java-0.2.0

I've finally  hunted down the problem.

It stems from the way we (I) handle errors, and is not openAuth specific, it just triggered here.

When the virConnectOpen* function encounters an error, it calls the error handler we set in the initializer, which in turn handles the error, and sets a java exception, but DOES NOT RETURN to java land.

Next, we try to get the error, which seems to have been cleared after calling the handler. (The deleted code was plain broken anyway, because the error struct is allocated by the virCopyLastError, not the caller), Then we call our error handler function with the uninitialized junk error object, which results in interesting errors.

The solution is quite simple, we simply need to return if we are unsuccessful (get NULL vc), and the previously set exception is magically thrown.

Generally, we should be much more careful with handling errors and exceptions, but 1.0 is a long way. :-)

István

Argh, well I went with the full GDB thing, which helped find some of the problems but not that one specifically.
  Patch applied, but I'm still seeing an error:

  With the debugging stderr calls still left. it seems virConnectOpenAuth()
does not work, and it seems something happens within the callback from
native to the Java authentication routine.
  Also seems the exception wrappers don't properly zeroe some of the strings
which need some investigation too.
  Would that be a JVM or 64bits specific issue ?  1964848024 is suspiciously
large and 0x751d3398 could well be a valid pointed, but casted to the wrong
place.

I had to do a "cp README README.in" in the cvs downloaded code, bacuase autogen.sh refused to run otherwise. Maybe it's missing from CVS?

  Oops, yes :-)

I am still targeting to add the full storage functionality in early August, when I'm back from vacation.

   Heh, enjoy your vacations, and thanks for the quick feedback !

Thanks for all the refactoring work.

  Well it made me learn more about the code :-)
