I was wondering if you could make the function debugcheckabort an inline function in exceptions.hpp that checks AbortVMOnException != NULL and calls a helper to save this conditional in all the callers? static void debugcheckabort(Handle exception, const char* message = NULL) { if (AbortVMException != NULL) debugcheckaborthelper(exception, message); } } Sure, I will make this change and will send the updated webrev.

Having these in product builds would be very useful to capture diagnostic data when an application fails with exceptions. This would be very useful in troubleshooting issues where only an exception is thrown. Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~poonam/8136577/webrev.00/ Tests: Ran a simple testcase that throws exception and confirmed that it generates hserr and core file when the specified exception occurs. regards, Poonam
