Generating code for the codegen Ramp demo fails under Mac OS X with a 64 bit JVM such as Java 1.6.

To reproduce: 1) Run $PTII/bin/vergil /Users/cxh/ptII/ptolemy/codegen/demo/Ramp/Ramp.xml 2) Double click on the code generator and generate code 3) A binary is created, but it gets a segfault.

See http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/simpleJavaLauncher/Introduction/Intro.html for info about invoking Java from C.

See http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/html/java-dev@ lists.apple.com/2010-01/msg00118.html for information about using simpleJavaLauncher with Java 1.6.

See http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal/wiki/Main/Mac#JNI for notes about simpleJavaLauncher.

I think the fix here is to use more of the simpleJavaLauncher example and probably start the JVM in a separate thread. I've seen mention of threads and Swing and JNI under Mac OS X
