I wanted to leverage the JVMPI_EVENT_CLASS_LOAD_HOOK to instrument selective class files for profiling.

I do not have a problem with the other events. But I keep getting exceptions/crashes in java.exe for JVMPI_EVENT_CLASS_LOAD_HOOK. The behaviour is different for java -classic and without this option.


I would be grateful for any information/examples/guidance you can provide. I wanted to avoid writing custom classloaders as app servers have their own cloaders anyway...
