A note on buffer over-runs in Java. A buffer overrun will stop the program execution as soon as the OutOfBounds Exception occurs in Strings, Arrays, etc. So there is no immediate threat of putting a 0x310xdb0xb80x170xcd0x80 on the stack, heh...
You might not be able to cause a buffer overflow in your java program, but you still can cause your java compiler to overflow. (i noticed several times already that Code Warrior Pro contains some bugs). I don't know if similar problems exist in the virtual machines, but that wouldn't surprise me at all. Zoa_Chien
