Re: use JNI to start JVM, then trying to change the java

Hi Barbara,

<snip>
If you start the JVM through JNI, the JVM is in the same job - at least, I didn't see anything in Ali's post to indicate that there was another job. (It's using the JAVA command that you get a different job.) 
</snip>

You're right! Obviously it's in the same job.
How does this work with multi-threading though? I mean, you can have many threads running within java, but the iSeries creates a BCI job for each thread (I believe). Does the main thread run within the same job as the JVM (and RPG program) but all other threads run as BCI jobs along-side it?
Also, what about the garbage collector? Doesn't that run in a separate thread (job) too? 

All very confusing. :-)

Cheers
