I'm not a reviewer, but aren't names that begin with _ in the global namespace (_awt_headless_NDX for example) reserved for the C/C++ library?

Thanks,

Andrew

Please review a re-implementation of the initialization of System properties moving some functions from native to Java.

The upcalls from native to java for each property are replaced by a mechanism to gather the platform, VM and command line properties and return them from a single JNI call.  The creation of the Properties instance and applying command line overrides is handled in Java instead of native.

The JVM_initProperties interface in Hotspot is replaced by JVM_getProperties.
