GCJ/C++ name mangling incompatibility

Sun Mar 11 16:17:00 GMT 2001

In the following test case, where we want to pass an inner class
reference to a native function, GCJ and C++ will produce conflicting
name manglings. They seem to have different interpretations of the "$"
character!
$ nm ./Test.o | grep foo
00000000 r _Utf1foo
 U _ZN4Test3fooEPN13Test__U24_BarE
$ nm ./natTest.o | grep foo
00000000 T _ZN4Test3fooEP8Test$Bar
// Test.java
public class Test
{
 class Bar {}
 native void foo(Bar b);
 void a()
 {
 foo(new Bar());
 }
}
// natTest.cc
#include <Test.h>
#include <Test$Bar.h>
#include <gcj/cni.h>
void
Test::foo (Test$Bar *)
{
}
