Hi, This change is mainly about clean up of the networking native code. There are a number of places that cache JNI global references to the Inet[4|6]Address classes, as well as caching their respective field IDs. It is also difficult to correctly handle propagation of possible JNI method invocation failures, from the (get|set)Inet[4|6]Address_XXX methods. As it happens Inet[4|6]Address.c already makes these classes and field IDs available [1] [2] [3]. It is then a small matter of ensuring that they get initialized from any entry point that may use them, in the various socket/InetAddress/network interface implementation, as well as NIO and SCTP.
