Adds a server-side runtime that runs a Codename One handler through the ParparVM
pipeline: Java or Kotlin translated to C and compiled into one static native
executable with no JVM under it. About 8 MB, a few milliseconds to first
connection, about 3 MB idle.

What this is for, and what it is not

It does not replace Spring Boot, Jakarta EE, Quarkus or Micronaut, and it is not
trying to. Those carry a container, an ORM, a security stack and twenty years of
operations; none of that is here or planned.

It targets the region where the JVM's assumptions stop paying: cold starts
charged per invocation, baseline memory charged for an instance's life, sidecars,
edge locations, short-lived processes. That is where Java is thin and Go and
Node dominate, and where a Java shop ends up carrying a second language and a
second copy of every model that crosses the boundary. Either as a piece of a
larger deployment or as the whole server for a small project.

The vertical integration is the other half: one @RestClient interface generates
the app's asynchronous client and the backend's synchronous half plus its
dispatcher, so a contract change is a compile error rather than a response the
app fails to parse in the field.

Where it stands against Go

vm/backend/benchmarks holds the harness. Two pinned cores, 64 connections,
interleaved with rotating arm order, against fasthttp:

CN1 fasthttp
/plaintext throughput 668k rps (n=14 paired) 631k
/plaintext p50 / p99 70 us / 183 us 84 us / 980 us
/json throughput 625k rps (n=16 paired) 615k
/json p50 87 us 97 us
/json RSS 24.7 MB 12.0 MB

The /json figures are the generated-DTO path answering off a pooled response.
A handler that returns a LinkedHashMap per request is about 0.58x, which the
benchmark keeps as its default because that is the honest cost of that shape.

Notable changes outside vm/backend

  • cn1_globals.m gains cn1SatbTrim. The SATB write-barrier log and its staging
    buffer only ever doubled and were never given back, so a process that saw one
    busy period kept the peak for life -- 8 MB of a 12 MB plaintext process was an
    empty buffer. Trimmed in the sweep against the recent high-water mark. This
    reaches every Codename One target, not just the backend.
  • maven/pom.xml builds maven/backend, which was in no <modules> block, so
    nothing built the artifact BackendPackageMojo resolves at run time.
  • Two goals, cn1:backend and cn1:backend-package, and the @RestClient
    server-half processor.
  • The archetype and the initializr both generate a backend module, behind
    -Dcodename1.platform=backend so a client-only app pays nothing for it.
  • A developer-guide chapter under a new "Server side" part.

Testing

  • BackendHttpIntegrationTest 21/21, plus the database and JavaSE-runtime suites.
  • GC suites: GcHeapIntegrity, GcOverflowSpiral, GcUncooperativeThread,
    LargeArrayGc, BibopPageFloor.
  • GcSteadyState's 768 MB ceiling scenario fails on the dev machine and fails
    identically with the SATB change stashed (895.8s against 913.7s, same timeout,
    same scenario), so it is the known local failure rather than a regression. It
    is @Tag("benchmark") and runs in the benchmark job.
  • Guide gates: vale 0 issues, asciidoctor clean at --failure-level WARN,
    structure, cross-references, snippets, links, paragraph capitalization.
  • SpotBugs on codenameone-maven-plugin: 0 findings. Copyright, control
    characters and cast-semantics gates clean over the branch.
  • The archetype was installed, a project generated from it, and the generated
    backend module compiled against codenameone-backend.

PMD and Checkstyle were not run locally; CI is the first run for those.

The clean (non-Objective-C) target could translate a Java main() and run it, but
not much more: main(String[]) was handed JAVA_NULL, so a translated program could
not read its own command line, and there was no way to read the environment, open
a file or read stdin. Every knob had to be a compile-time macro, which is why the
GC benchmarks are parameterised the way they are.

  - argv reaches main(String[]) via cn1MainArgs, skipping argv[0] the way Java does
  - System.getenv(String)
  - java.io.FileInputStream / FileOutputStream over C stdio, so the same code
    serves the Windows target, which has no unistd.h
  - java.io.StandardInputStream behind System.in. Not a FileInputStream: stdin is
    not seekable, so skip and available cannot be answered by seeking

Separately, CHECKCAST. BC_CHECKCAST expanded to nothing, so a failed cast handed
the wrong object to the next instruction and the target type's fields were read
out of it -- a native crash no Java catch can see (issue #5531). Implementing the
macro alone would have changed nothing: BytecodeMethod DELETES the CHECKCAST
instruction before codegen ("gets in the way of other optimizations"), so nothing
ever reached TypeInstruction. Array stores had the companion hole -- AASTORE was
bounds-checked but never covariance-checked, and the macro's own comment claimed
otherwise.

Both are now enforced under -Dcn1.checkedCasts=true, which also drives retention
of ClassCastException and ArrayStoreException so the emission and the classes can
never disagree and leave an unresolved symbol. Opt-in, because turning it on
changes the outcome of app builds that succeed today; a server-side build parsing
untrusted input should always enable it.

Verified against vm/tests: 80 tests, no regressions.

The next stage is a standalone server rather than a Lambda, and the first
question it asks is whether a connection can have a thread. That needed a number,
so ThreadCost parks N threads and holds them while RSS is read from outside.

Measured with 512 parked threads:

    musl/arm64 (the deployment target)   243 KB/thread
    macOS/arm64                          118 KB/thread

Attribution on Linux, by ablation:

    callStack arrays  (1024 -> 128)      -50 KB
    pendingHeapAllocations (4096 -> 256) -27 KB
    try blocks (500 -> 32)               -15 KB
    shadow stack (16536 -> 2048)           0 KB
    thread stack (16MB -> 256KB)           0 KB

Two of those are worth recording because they are the opposite of what the
macOS numbers suggested. The shadow stack, the biggest single allocation at
258KB, costs nothing resident on Linux -- shrinking it changes the number not at
all, though on macOS it looked like the dominant cost. And the pinned 16MB thread
stack is free: it is reserved, never committed.

The five sizes are now #ifndef-guarded so an A/B can override them with -D. They
were unconditional #defines, so a -D was silently ignored -- the redefinition
warning is suppressed by the generated code's -w, which is how the first round of
ablations produced three identical numbers and no conclusion.

The shadow stack is now mapped rather than malloc'd and memset in full. That is a
spawn-path win (258KB of stores per thread creation), not a footprint win; the
comment says so rather than implying the measurement it did not produce.

The conclusion for the server design: at 155-243 KB even with every buffer
shrunk, ten thousand connections is 1.5-2.4GB of threads. A connection cannot have
one. The design is a reactor with a bounded worker pool, where a few dozen threads
cost a few megabytes and the connection is just an fd.

throwException walked the try-block stack looking for a handler and, when it
found none, RETURNED. The generated code then carried on with the statement after
the throw, with the method's locals in whatever state the failed operation left
them. On an app target something upstream nearly always catches -- the EDT's own
try -- so this stayed invisible; a server binary has nothing above main.

What it looked like in practice: a database client whose TLS handshake was
rejected threw, Database.open "returned" a null, and the program segfaulted two
statements later on the null. The message that would have named the real cause
was never printed, and a program that threw out of main exited with status 0.

The clean target now prints the exception, its message and a stack trace, and
exits 1. Every other target keeps today's behaviour: making this fatal everywhere
would change what apps that ship today do, so the generated main() opts in and
nothing else does.

Two details the fix needed. The message is fetched separately because the
pre-rendered stack string carries only the type, and on a server the message is
the actionable half. And the try depth is reset to zero before rendering: the
search leaves it at -1, and a Java method that saves and restores a negative depth
corrupts what it restores into, which turned the reporter itself into a SIGBUS.

Also here, because the same audit found it: java.lang.System.in is a static field,
so every translated program reaches StandardInputStream's natives, and the
JavaScript backend had no category for them -- which turned the core-slice
completeness gate red for code that never touches stdin. They are marked
unsupported there, as java.io.File already is: a browser has no process stdin.

Both are one-line consequences of the same C rule, found by building the same
program two ways.

ATOMIC_VAR_INIT on an atomic POINTER is rejected by clang 14 -- which is what
Debian bookworm ships, and therefore what the glibc backend builder image uses
-- as "initializer element is not a compile-time constant". The generator emits
it for every `volatile` static reference field, so any such field in ordinary
user code failed to build there. A static object is zero-initialized by the
language, so the initializer is dropped; the macro is deprecated in C17 and gone
in C23 regardless.

CN1_RESUME_THREAD referenced gcParkCaptured unconditionally, but that field only
exists when conservative roots are compiled in. So
-DCN1_DISABLE_CONSERVATIVE_GC_ROOTS -- the A/B arm vm/CLAUDE.md documents -- did
not build at all, and the one measurement that isolates the conservative scan's
cost could not be taken. It is now behind a macro that compiles away with the
field.

A virtual thread runs Java on a stack of its own, so parking one is a stack
switch of a couple of nanoseconds rather than a blocked OS thread. Measured
round trip on arm64: 2.1ns.

The runtime is three files -- cn1_virtual_thread.{h,c} and the context switch,
which has to be assembly because glibc aborts a cross-stack longjmp under
_FORTIFY_SOURCE and musl has no makecontext. aarch64 and x86_64 are implemented;
anywhere else the header's stubs answer "there is no virtual thread here", which
is the truth, and every caller folds away at compile time.

The collector had to learn about them, because a virtual thread breaks two of its
assumptions silently:

  - A carrier RUNNING a virtual thread has its stack pointer inside that virtual
    stack, so the [sp, base) bounds test rejected it and skipped every
    conservative root the thread held.
  - A PARKED virtual thread is referenced by nothing the collector walks, while
    its stack still holds Java references in C temporaries.

Both are served from a registry snapshot taken once per cycle before any thread
is stopped: walking the live registry would take its mutex, and a thread frozen
by the stop signal may be the one holding it.

Also here, because they are what made the above work: the translator emits the
runtime into every generated project, and CN1_RESUME_THREAD yields a virtual
thread rather than sleeping the carrier it runs on -- a carrier hosts many
virtual threads, so sleeping it freezes all of them.

Carried along in the same change: LinkedHashMap runs its eviction hook only on a
real insertion, as java.util does, which also drops an allocation per insertion;
a generated mapper can serialise straight to JSON instead of filling a map and
walking it back, measured 2.05x/1.51x/2.81x on a four-property object with output
asserted byte-identical; and a repeated CHECKCAST is dropped when it immediately
follows the identical one.

CN1_RESUME_THREAD waited out a collection with usleep(1000). Two things make
that expensive on the backend and neither is visible at the call site.

It sleeps the CARRIER, and a carrier hosts many virtual threads: hostCount is
min(workers, cores), so on a two-core pin sixty four connections share two
carriers. One carrier sleeping a millisecond freezes about thirty two
connections that were ready to run, which is the shape of a server whose median
is healthy and whose tail is not.

And it is a sleep-poll, so the wait is quantised to the sleep interval however
briefly the flag was actually held. The measured worst case was 1923us: two
iterations of a 1ms sleep waiting for something that had long since cleared.

The pacing park already yielded here; this site did not, and it is the hottest
of the four -- once per syscall return, 204105 times in a twenty second run
against 9 for the handshake. Platform threads still sleep, having nothing to
yield to, and off the backend the stub answers "not virtual" so the macro folds
back to exactly the old loop.

This shortens the wait; it does not remove it. The thread is still held until
the collector has drained the whole worklist reachable from its roots rather
than merely captured them, which is a separate question and a larger one.

cn1SpawnVirtualThread and cn1CreateThreadLocalData were declared inside
#ifdef CN1_CONSERVATIVE_GC_ROOTS. Neither has anything to do with how the
collector finds its roots, and burying them there broke
-DCN1_DISABLE_CONSERVATIVE_GC_ROOTS -- the precise threadObjectStack arm that
vm/CLAUDE.md documents -- with an undeclared cn1SpawnVirtualThread in the
backend's native sources. C being what it is, the implicit declaration then also
produced an int-to-pointer conversion, so the failure named the wrong thing.

Found while measuring that arm rather than by building it, which is the point:
nothing builds it. The default build is unchanged.

CN1_RESUME_THREAD is a safepoint: it can park the thread on a timed wait while a
collection runs, and that overwrites errno. Reading errno after it recorded the
WAIT's outcome rather than the read's, so lastError handed Java an error
belonging to something else entirely. Captured at the syscall instead.

The do/while EINTR retry idiom elsewhere is already safe -- it reads errno before
the resume.

The mark phase signals every thread and spins until it answers, so it can scan
the thread's native stack conservatively. A thread that never answers is not
scanned either way -- the caller returns 0 and reads nothing -- so the wait buys
literally nothing, and one such thread cost 267ms of a 280ms mark, every cycle.

Count consecutive timeouts per thread and skip a thread that has failed three of
them, re-probing every 64th attempt so one that becomes responsive is picked back
up, and clearing the count the moment it answers.

The forced-stop escalation (issue #5537) must NOT be throttled this way, so the
implementation takes a maySkip flag and the escalation passes 0. It retries every
CN1_GC_SAFEPOINT_WAIT_MAX_US precisely to ride out a transient or descheduled
handler; skipping those retries would leave the collector waiting on threadActive
for tens of seconds, turning a recoverable timeout into exactly the whole-VM pause
the escalation exists to prevent.

Measured on the server workload: stackMs 269 -> 0.20.

…sembly

Two halves of one bug. Virtual threads were gated on a build flag that only the
server build set, and the flag was justified by an Xcode misfiling it was working
around: Xcode has no mapping for the .S extension, so an unrecognised one becomes
`lastKnownFileType = file` and lands the file in the RESOURCES phase, where it is
copied into the bundle and never assembled. The iOS target then failed to link
naming _cn1VirtualThreadSwitch, whose source was sitting right there in the
project. Gating the feature off made the misfiled resource inert, so the phone
target linked and the misfiling stayed hidden.

Fix the misfiling instead: .S maps to sourcecode.asm.asm (preprocessed, which the
capability gate in the file needs) and .s to sourcecode.asm, and both route into
the Sources phase rather than Resources. Every future assembly file gets this too.

That removes the reason for the flag, so the gate becomes a capability test: on
anywhere the switch is written for -- aarch64 and x86_64, excluding Windows, whose
calling convention needs its own prologue -- virtual threads are on. There is no
separate "server build" of the VM; a flag would only mean the feature is off in
every build nobody remembered to set it in. Elsewhere the header's no-op stubs
answer "there is no virtual thread here", which is true, so the collector needs no
#ifdefs and every call folds away. CN1_DISABLE_VIRTUAL_THREADS forces that path.

The predicate is repeated verbatim in the .S, which is preprocessed assembly and
cannot include the header -- the two must stay identical or the link breaks on the
switch symbol.

Also excludes LinkedHashMap from the copyright gate: it is Apache Harmony source
and keeps its Apache-2.0 notice.

Turning virtual threads on by capability rather than by a flag nobody set made
three latent bugs reachable at once, all the same shape: the context switch was
copied into the generated project and never assembled, so the C half linked
against a symbol whose source was sitting in the same directory.

  - CMake globbed *.S only for the LINUX app type, and only when embedding
    resources -- the condition belonged to the resource blob, which used to be
    the only .S there is. Now any .S present drives both the ASM language and the
    glob, on every cmake target.
  - The WINDOWS app type is also cross-built with clang on a POSIX host, where
    _WIN32 is undefined, the switch is live, and MSVC's inability to assemble GNU
    syntax is irrelevant. That is a question about the compiler, and CMake can
    only answer it after project() has enabled C, so it is asked there rather
    than guessed from the app type. Under MSVC the variable stays unset and
    expands to nothing.
  - Xcode has no mapping for .S at all, so it became `lastKnownFileType = file`
    and landed in the RESOURCES phase, shipped into the bundle and never built.
    sourcecode.asm is the identifier for both spellings: Xcode's own
    StandardFileTypes.xcspec lists it as `Extensions = (s)` with
    `GccDialectName = assembler-with-cpp`, which is the preprocessing the file's
    capability gate needs. The neighbouring sourcecode.asm.asm is for .asm.

Tests. BackendUncaughtExceptionTest needed a support class that does not exist
here, and only ever reached the fix through a server binary; replaced by
UncaughtExceptionIntegrationTest, which builds a clean-target program directly
and asserts the whole contract -- message, stack frame, non-zero exit, and that
execution stops AT the throw rather than carrying on, which is the half the other
three can all pass without.

test_virtual_thread.c was built by nothing. A hand-written context switch with no
enforced coverage could break in any commit and stay green, so
VirtualThreadRuntimeTest drives it from the suite, compiled out of the SAME
staged classpath resources a generated project receives -- which also asserts
those three files are present and agree with each other.

The iOS project test now asserts the assembly is typed as assembly, IS in the
Sources phase and is NOT in Resources. All three: the type alone does not prove
the phase, and the phase alone does not prove it assembles.

The generator's own source set is what caught the last of it. Two copies of
replaceLibraryWithExecutableTarget matched the add_library line by its full
argument LIST -- the shared one in CleanTargetIntegrationTest and a private
duplicate at the bottom of FileClassIntegrationTest. Adding the assembly glob
made both stop matching, so those tests built a library and then failed running
an executable nothing had asked for. The shared one now matches the CALL and
asserts the substitution happened; the duplicate is gone, and FileClassIntegration
uses the shared one like the other twenty-two callers already did.

All five were real. Taken together they are one theme: a virtual thread is a
mutator the collector cannot see by the usual means, and the code that creates
one was doing only half the job.

RUNNING VIRTUAL THREADS LOOKED PARKED. cn1SpawnVirtualThread builds its VM state
with bindToCallingOsThread false, which leaves threadActive FALSE, and nothing
ever raised it. A collection running concurrently therefore treated a mutator
executing Java as parked, and was free to scan or migrate its object stack and
pending-allocation table underneath it -- missed roots at best, corruption at
worst. The flag now moves with the context switch, up on resume and down on
suspend, because a SUSPENDED virtual thread genuinely is parked: the collector
reaches its roots through the registry snapshot instead.

The transition is a weak symbol with a no-op default, not a function pointer.
cn1_virtual_thread.c cannot include cn1_globals.h (the standalone runtime test
builds it with no VM at all), an indirect call on a path whose entire value is
that it costs 2.1ns is not free, and a weak symbol costs a direct call the linker
resolves to the VM's real one when there is a VM.

NOTHING RELEASED THE STATE. cn1VirtualThreadFree knows only about the coroutine.
The VM state spawned beside it holds a 264KB shadow stack, the call-stack arrays,
the pending-allocation table, and one of the NUMBER_OF_SUPPORTED_THREADS slots in
allThreads. A virtual thread per request would have consumed a slot per completed
request and eventually tripped CODENAME_ONE_ASSERT(threadOffset > -1). Added
cn1RetireVirtualThread, which marks the state dead the way an OS thread's death
does and then frees it with the same gcQueuedForDrain deferral the Java finalizer
uses.

THE UNCAUGHT-EXCEPTION EXIT WAS NOT GATED. This is the one that would have
shipped. The generated main() is emitted for every target that has one, iOS and
macOS included, and cn1AbortOnUncaughtException was set unconditionally -- so an
uncaught exception on any thread would have terminated a shipped app. The comment
sitting above it claimed the opposite ("Only this target opts in, so nothing that
ships today changes behaviour"), which was simply false: the enclosing guard is
`if(m.isMain())` and nothing more. Now gated on OUTPUT_TYPE_CLEAN.

BLOCKING STDIN NEVER PARKED THE MUTATOR. System.in.read() waits as long as nobody
types, with the thread left active, so a concurrent collection spun for a
safepoint that could not arrive until a human pressed a key. Bracketed with
CN1_YIELD_THREAD/CN1_RESUME_THREAD like the socket reads -- which then needs the
keep-alive those reads also need, because only an interior pointer into the array
is live across the call and the collector would otherwise sweep the buffer being
filled. Portable here (a volatile store) rather than the Linux port's asm
barrier, because this file also compiles under clang-cl. feof is read before the
resume for the same reason errno is: the resume is a safepoint, and anything
asked afterwards describes the wait.

THE SHADOW STACK WAS FREED THE WRONG WAY. cn1AllocThreadStack falls back to
calloc when mmap is out of MAPPINGS rather than out of memory, and
cn1FreeThreadStack always called munmap. That fails with EINVAL and leaks the
whole stack -- or, on an allocator that returns page-aligned blocks, unmaps
memory the allocator still believes it owns. Which allocator answered is now
recorded and the free is paired to it.

… does

Mapper.Direct's contract is to produce exactly what
JSONWriter.toJson(toMap(instance)) would. Two fields did not, so a mapper changed
its wire representation on the day it gained a direct writer:

  - A null List serialised as `null`, where the map path emits `[]` --
    emitFieldToMap builds its ArrayList unconditionally and fills it only when
    the source is non-null.
  - Enum elements went through toString(). The map path uses Enum.name(), and
    deserialisation matches against the declared constants, so an enum that
    overrides toString() produced JSON that could not be read back at all.

Every other element kind was checked rather than assumed: appendJsonValue already
maps Date to getTime(), scalars and collections through writeJson, and a mapped
object through its own mapper -- the same three answers emitFieldToMap gives.

Nothing was comparing the two paths, which is why both got through. Every
existing test exercises one route or the other, never one against the other, so
the divergence was invisible to all of them. directJsonMatchesTheMapPathExactly
runs an object with a populated list, an enum list, a Date and scalars, and then
the same class with every list left null, asserting the two routes produce
identical text. It asserts equality of the paths rather than against a literal on
purpose: it keeps holding when a field kind is added, with nobody remembering to
extend a hand-written expectation.

Two things that test needed before it proved anything. It drives the generated
mapper's own toJson rather than Mappers.appendJson, which goes through the
registry -- unpopulated in an isolated classloader, so it fell back to toString()
and compared the map path against "com.example.Swatch@23706db8". And it asserts
the mapper actually implements Mapper.Direct, without which it would compare the
map path with itself and pass while testing nothing. The test enum deliberately
overrides toString() to disagree with name(), so the wrong choice cannot pass.

Also drops a redundant `public` on the interface: PMD's UnnecessaryModifier, and
a zero-findings gate.

…ow needs

Two CI breakages, both from this branch making something reachable that had not
been reached before.

EVERY cn1lib NATIVE CHECK STOPPED AT A MISSING HEADER. cn1_globals.h now includes
cn1_virtual_thread.h -- CN1_RESUME_THREAD yields a virtual thread rather than
sleeping the carrier it runs on -- and two places stage the port headers into a
scratch directory to compile a cn1lib against them. Neither knew about the second
file, so both stopped at "'cn1_virtual_thread.h' file not found" before compiling
a line: the six ad-cn1lib xcodebuild probes and check-cn1lib-native-sources.py.
The workflow's path filters gain the header too, otherwise a future change to it
skips the very check that would catch this.

java.io.File HAD NO WINDOWS PATH. Its non-ObjC arm is POSIX-only -- unistd.h,
dirent.h, access(), X_OK -- and Windows reaches that arm under clang-cl, which is
neither __OBJC__ nor POSIX. It went unnoticed because java_io_File_runtime.c is
emitted only when an app actually uses java.io.File, and until the clean target
became a usable program runtime no Windows build ever did. Now every one of them
failed on 'unistd.h' file not found.

The Win32 arm: io.h and direct.h for _access, the access-mode constants the MSVC
CRT does not define, and FindFirstFile for the directory walk, in the same
two-pass shape as the POSIX one (count, allocate, refill) because allocArray can
collect and the array must not be built with a find handle open. X_OK maps to an
existence check: Win32's access model has no execute bit, and _access REJECTS a
mode of 1 rather than answering "not executable". isHidden asks for
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN instead of guessing from a leading dot, which means nothing
on Windows. Everything else -- stat, remove, rename, mkdir -- the CRT already
provides under the same names.

Also merges two identical project() branches that SpotBugs flagged as
DB_DUPLICATE_BRANCHES: Linux and the clean target answer the assembly question
the same way, so they share one branch instead of two spelled alike.

The POSIX arm is verified here (FileClassIntegrationTest, 5/5); the Win32 arm can
only be verified by CI, which is what reported it.

CodeQL java/zipslip, high severity. unzip() built each output path by
concatenating the destination with ZipEntry.getName(), unchecked, so an entry
named "../../x" wrote wherever the archive asked. Both callers unpack a
DOWNLOADED zip -- Groovy for the console, JavaFX for the browser component -- so
the archive is not something the user authored, and the consequence is an
arbitrary file overwritten under their account while they believe they are
unpacking a dependency. CWE-22.

Every entry now has to resolve inside the destination or it is refused. The
comparison is between CANONICAL paths -- resolving the ".." is the whole point --
and it uses java.nio.file.Path.startsWith rather than String.startsWith, for two
reasons. Path compares COMPONENT-wise, so a sibling like "/tmp/dest-evil" is
rejected against "/tmp/dest" where a character-wise prefix accepts it, and giving
the string prefix a trailing separator to fix that then wrongly rejects the
destination directory itself. It is also the shape CodeQL recognises as a
sanitizer: the first attempt here was a correct canonical-path check that the
query still flagged, because a compound `!a && !b` guard did not read as a
barrier.

Two things the fix had to bring with it, both found by writing the test:

  - Parent directories are created before extracting. FileOutputStream will not
    create them, and a nested entry can arrive before the directory entry that
    holds it, so "nested/deep/leaf.txt" in an archive that declares no directory
    entries threw FileNotFoundException. That was broken before this change too.
  - destDir uses mkdirs rather than mkdir, so a destination more than one level
    deep is actually created.

Both streams are closed in a finally, which they were not: an IOException
mid-extract leaked the descriptor.

The test builds the malicious archive rather than checking one in -- a committed
zip that escapes its destination is an awkward thing to keep in a repository, and
building it puts the attack in front of the reader. Verified non-vacuous by
reverting the fix: 2 failures against the old code, 0 against the new.

Removing the unistd.h/dirent.h dependency got clang-cl past the first error and
into four more, all the same kind -- POSIX spellings the MSVC CRT does not have:

  - `redefinition of 'timeval'`. <windows.h> pulls in <winsock.h>, whose timeval
    collides with the one cn1_win_compat.h defines. WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN keeps
    winsock out, and nothing here wants it.
  - S_ISDIR / S_ISREG undeclared. The CRT has the st_mode BITS but not the macros
    that test them, so they are defined from _S_IFMT/_S_IFDIR/_S_IFREG.
  - PATH_MAX undeclared -- MAX_PATH is the Win32 spelling.
  - realpath undeclared. _fullpath is the equivalent, but it takes
    (destination, source), the REVERSE of realpath's (source, destination), so
    the macro swaps them. Getting that backwards compiles and canonicalizes the
    wrong string in silence. It also resolves a path that does not exist rather
    than failing, which is the more useful answer for getCanonicalPath.

The POSIX arm is unchanged and still verified here (FileClassIntegrationTest,
5/5). The Windows arm is verified only by CI, which is what reported both rounds.

Two Windows-only build breaks in this branch's own new code, both invisible on
the POSIX legs.

`i->gcPthread = 0` for a virtual thread's state is a type error under clang-cl:
pthread_t is a POINTER on Apple and glibc, but the Windows compat shim defines it
as struct {handle, id}, so the assignment reads as "assigning to 'pthread_t' from
incompatible type 'int'". memset over sizeof is correct for both shapes, and
gcPthreadValid -- set FALSE on the next line -- is what actually gates every read
of the field.

cn1AllocThreadStack declared its byte count above the #if that uses it, so on
Windows, whose arm calls calloc with the element count instead, it was an unused
local. Moved onto the arm that uses it.

Swept the rest of this branch's additions for the same class of thing rather than
waiting for CI to find them one at a time: every other POSIX call in code Windows
compiles is either guarded (mmap/munmap behind !_WIN32, pthread_attr_setstacksize
behind __linux__) or shimmed in cn1_win_compat.h (usleep, pthread_key_create,
pthread_getspecific). The virtual-thread runtime -- including the
__attribute__((weak)) definition, which clang-cl treats differently on COFF -- is
entirely inside the CN1_VIRTUAL_THREADS gate, which excludes _WIN32, so none of
it is compiled there at all.

A null array crashed instead of throwing (P1). CN1_ARRAY_STORE_CHECK evaluates
CN1_CLASS_OF(arrayObj) with no null guard, and under -Dcn1.checkedCasts it runs
AHEAD of the setter that turns a null array into a NullPointerException -- so an
object-array store through a null array took the process down. Java orders NPE
ahead of ArrayStoreException anyway, so falling through to the setter is both the
safe answer and the correct one.

A virtual thread's stack could go unmarked mid-switch (P1). The parked-stack pass
skipped anything cn1VirtualThreadIsRunning() reported, on the reasoning that the
carrier covers those. It does -- but only once the carrier's stack pointer is
actually INSIDE the virtual stack, and `running` is raised before the switch and
lowered after the switch back. In those two windows a stopped carrier still has an
OS-stack pointer, so cn1VirtualThreadForStackAddress matches nothing, the carrier
pass scans only the OS stack, and this pass skipped the virtual stack for being
"running". References held in C temporaries there could be swept.

The flag cannot be made atomic with the switch it brackets, because the switch is
what changes the stack the flag would have to be written from. So the passes now
OVERLAP instead of partitioning: every virtual thread's saved region is scanned
unconditionally. Safe, because [sp, stackHigh) is inside the mapping whenever sp
is non-zero; complete, because while a virtual thread runs the carrier's pointer
is lower, so this pass covers a subset and the carrier covers the rest; and cheap,
because conservative marking is idempotent.

cn1RetireVirtualThread's "use after free" was NOT one, and the code now says so.
markDeadThread -> collectThreadResources sets gcQueuedForDrain unconditionally and
has no early return, so the synchronous release branch was unreachable. It read as
live, though, so it is gone and the invariant is written down -- including the
reason it matters, which the report had right: codenameOneGCMark copies each
ThreadLocalData* out of allThreads under the critical section and dereferences it
OUTSIDE the lock, so a synchronous free would be a genuine use-after-free.

File.list returned something that called itself a String. All three arms passed
the ELEMENT class to allocArray, which installs whatever it is given as the array
object's own class; cn1MainArgs has always passed class_array1__java_lang_String.
Pre-existing on iOS and Linux, copied into the new Windows arm, fixed on all three.

Windows absolute paths were treated as relative, which corrupted them rather than
merely misreporting them: getAbsolutePathImpl tested p[0] == '/', so "C:\data"
had the working directory prepended. There is now a per-platform predicate that
knows about drive letters and UNC roots. The matching Java-side gap is deliberately
left and documented at the predicate: File.isAbsolute() tests
startsWith(File.separator) and separator is "/" everywhere, which needs a
per-platform separator in shared JavaAPI -- a change for every port, not for
making the clean target build.

Blocking file reads and writes now park the mutator, like the socket reads and
StandardInputStream already did: a FIFO, a device or a network-backed path blocks
for as long as the far end stays quiet, and an active thread there strands the
collector waiting for a safepoint that cannot arrive. Both carry the buffer
keep-alive for the same reason those do -- only an interior pointer is live across
the call. (Moving that macro above its first use is why it now sits at the top of
the file layer rather than beside stdin.)

The benchmark helper compiles the emitted .S. Third place with this bug: the CMake
generator and the Xcode project generator had it too, and a *.c-only invocation
links against a missing cn1VirtualThreadSwitch on any target where the switch
exists.

Two findings are recorded in the file rather than fixed, with the analysis and the
actual remedy: 32-bit ftell/fseek cannot express a position past 2GiB where C long
is 32 bits, and paths reach the narrow CRT as UTF-8 and are read as ANSI. Both are
pre-existing on every platform, both want a change across the whole file layer,
and neither is what enabling the clean target is about.

Mapper.Direct promises identical output, not better output. Each of these was the
direct path being reasonable in a way emitFieldToMap is not, which is the same
thing as changing a mapper's wire format the day it gains a direct writer.

  - A property NAME was escaped for the Java literal and not for JSON. escape()
    doubles a quote so the generated source compiles; the resulting writer then
    appended the raw character, so a @JsonProperty holding a quote emitted
    "a"b" -- unparseable. The map path never had this because JSONWriter puts the
    key through writeString. Now jsonEscape composed with escape: one makes the
    JSON valid, the other makes the source compile. Done at generation time, since
    a jsonName is a compile-time constant and the writer should stay a literal
    append.
  - A Property value was rendered too well. emitFieldToMap stores it RAW, so
    JSONWriter renders a Date or a mapped object through String.valueOf;
    appendJsonValue turned them into epoch millis and nested JSON. New
    Mappers.appendJsonRaw is exactly JSONWriter's answer for a value that was put
    in the map unchanged.
  - A reference field looked its mapper up by RUNTIME class. A field declared as a
    mapped base holding an unmapped subclass therefore found nothing and fell back
    to a quoted toString, where the map path asks Mappers.get(Declared.class) and
    serialises it as an object. New Mappers.appendJsonUsing takes the mapper the
    caller names, and still uses that mapper's direct route when it has one.
  - Mapped list ELEMENTS had the same problem, plus the general one behind it: the
    direct path had a two-way branch where emitFieldToMap has four. It now mirrors
    them one for one -- enum name(), scalar raw, Date getTime(), everything else
    through the declared element type's mapper.

The test was the actual defect. Nothing compared the two paths against each other,
which is why all of this shipped; and the parity test added for the first pair
needed three fixes of its own before it proved anything:

  - It went through Mappers.appendJson, which consults the registry. In an
    isolated classloader the registry is empty, so it compared the map path
    against "com.example.Swatch@23706db8". It now drives the generated writer.
  - The polymorphic case had no mapper registered for the base type, so BOTH paths
    fell back to toString and agreed. Registering it is what makes the two
    implementations able to differ at all.
  - assertEquals reports the FIRST difference, so one unfixed case masked the
    others. Each representation is now pinned individually, which also catches the
    case equality cannot: both paths wrong in the same way.

Verified by reverting the generator with the test in place: one failure against
the old code, six passing against the new.

Two more review findings, both in code this branch touched.

skip(Long.MAX_VALUE) computed `start + count` and clamped afterwards. Once any
byte has been read that addition overflows signed long -- undefined behaviour, and
in practice a wrap to negative, so the seek goes BACKWARDS and the caller is told
it skipped a negative distance or gets an error where it should have landed on
EOF. It now clamps against the remaining DISTANCE, which cannot overflow: end is
at least start, and start plus the clamped amount is at most end.

File.list walked the directory TWICE -- count, allocate, walk again -- and assumed
both walks saw the same directory. They do not. A file created in between overruns
the array, and CN1_SET_ARRAY_ELEMENT_OBJECT turns that into
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException; a file removed leaves trailing nulls in a String[]
that no caller expects. Directories change under readers routinely, so this was
never sound. I wrote the Windows arm that way deliberately, mirroring the POSIX
one, which means I copied the structure without asking whether it held.

Both arms now enumerate ONCE into a small growable list of names and build the
array afterwards. The names are held in C memory on purpose: allocArray and
newStringFromCString can both collect, and nothing may hold a directory handle
across that. The ObjC arm is left alone -- NSFileManager hands back a snapshot, so
it never had the race. Also moves stdlib.h to the shared include group, since the
list uses malloc/realloc/free on both arms and sits outside the platform blocks.

The test is the part worth reading. FileClassIntegrationTest never called
File.list(), so the native listing was COMPILED but never RUN by any suite: the
rewrite above passed 5/5 while executing none of it, and reverting it would have
passed too. Coverage now creates a directory, lists it, and pins the three things
that were wrong or fragile -- the entries, the absence of nulls, and that the
result is a String[] rather than a String, which is the pre-existing allocArray
class bug nothing had ever asserted.

Confirmed the assertions discriminate rather than merely execute: with the array
class reverted to the element class, all five configurations FAIL; restored, all
five pass.

Two more findings, both consequences of this branch making java.io.File usable on
Windows.

"C:foo" is DRIVE-RELATIVE: relative to the working directory of drive C, which is
not the process working directory and may be on a different drive. cn1FileIsAbsolute
classified it correctly -- the comment there even says so -- and then the fallback
prepended the process cwd anyway, producing "D:\cwd\C:foo", which names nothing.
The predicate knew about a case the code after it did not. _getdcwd asks the right
drive.

Deliberately not _fullpath, which the report suggested: it also normalises "..",
and getAbsolutePath is specified NOT to do that -- resolving is getCanonicalPath's
job. Using it would have swapped a wrong path for a subtly wrong contract.

createNewFile was check-then-act: access(), then fopen(p, "w"). Losing that race
does not merely return the wrong answer, it TRUNCATES the file the other process
just created, and then reports true as though it had done the creating -- which is
exactly the failure mode the lock-file and single-instance patterns it exists for
cannot survive. Now a single O_EXCL open on both arms, with the kernel deciding.
Pre-existing on POSIX too, so both are fixed.

ON THE TEST, because the distinction matters: the coverage added here is a
REGRESSION GUARD, not a demonstration of atomicity. It checks the uncontended path
-- createNewFile on an existing file returns false and leaves it intact -- and the
old check-then-act version passes it too, because access() succeeds and it returns
before reaching the truncating fopen. Confirmed by running the suite against the
old implementation: 5/5 green. The real defect needs a file to appear between the
check and the open, which one thread cannot arrange, so the argument for the fix is
structural rather than empirical and the comment in the test says so.

newStringFromCString turns each byte into its own char. That is correct for what
it exists to serve -- generated string literals, which are ASCII plus ~~uXXXX
escapes -- and wrong for anything arriving from outside the program. A UTF-8
"e-acute" is two bytes, so main(String[]) and System.getenv handed back one
garbage char per byte, corrupting paths and option values before the program had
a chance to look at them. Both entry points are new in this branch.

newStringFromUtf8 decodes properly: multi-byte sequences, surrogate pairs for
astral code points, and U+FFFD for malformed input the way java.lang.String's own
decoder does -- a program should not die because one environment variable holds a
stray byte. Overlong forms, UTF-8-encoded surrogates and out-of-range code points
are all rejected.

newStringFromCString itself is deliberately NOT changed. Every native-to-Java
string in the VM goes through it, its byte-widening is load-bearing for the
literals it serves, and its own comment records that the high-bit path is
bit-identical to what came before. Correcting the two entry points this branch
added is the scoped fix; the general version is the same work as the ANSI-versus-
UTF-8 path issue already recorded in nativeMethods.m.

TWO BUGS UNDERNEATH, both found by the test rather than by reading:

newString was broken and had never been called from C. JAVA_CHAR is an int and
JAVA_ARRAY_CHAR is an unsigned short, and it sized the allocation with
sizeof(JAVA_CHAR) while memcpy'ing length * sizeof(JAVA_ARRAY_CHAR) bytes out of a
four-byte-element array -- half the input, at the wrong stride. My decoder was its
first caller and hit it immediately: "cafe" came back as c,NUL,a,NUL,f. It now
narrows element by element.

Behind that, the representation is not a free choice. A string whose units all fit
in a byte is stored as a COMPACT byte[], anything else as a char[], and charAt
reads whichever it finds -- so handing it the wrong one reads 8-bit units out of
16-bit data and produces exactly the same symptom rather than failing. That rule
now lives in cn1StringFromUnits, used by newString and newStringFromUtf8.
newStringFromCString keeps its own copy on purpose: it tracks the Latin-1 flag
during decoding and runs for every literal at startup, so routing it through a
helper that recomputes would add a pass over every literal in the program to save
a dozen lines. The comment says so, and says the two must change together.

The test reports CODE POINTS rather than text, so it cannot pass through a
console-encoding coincidence: "cafe-acute-euro" must arrive as 99,97,102,233,8364,
which covers a two-byte and a three-byte sequence. Byte-widening reports the
individual bytes instead, which is how the newString bug surfaced.

…s UTF-8

The Windows clean-target leg failed the test added with the UTF-8 decoder, and it
was right to: "cafe-acute-euro" arrived as 99,97,102,65533,65533 -- c, a, f, and
two replacement characters. The CRT hands main() and getenv() the wide command
line and environment already converted down to the ACTIVE CODE PAGE, so decoding
those bytes as UTF-8 finds invalid sequences and substitutes U+FFFD for every
non-ASCII character.

That failure was predicted by a comment I had written in this very function --
which then shipped alongside a test asserting the behaviour the comment said did
not exist. MultiByteToWideChar with CP_ACP is the conversion Windows actually
needs, and it yields UTF-16 code units directly, so nothing decodes afterwards.

RENAMED from newStringFromUtf8 to newStringFromNative for the same reason: a
function named FromUtf8 that deliberately does not decode UTF-8 on one of its
platforms is a trap for whoever reads it next. The name now says what it does --
convert text that came from the OS, in whatever encoding the OS used.

WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN before windows.h, which is the same winsock timeval collision
that broke java_io_File.m; and the byte-length local moved onto the POSIX arm,
which is the only one that uses it.

The JLS orders these: NullPointerException, then ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException,
then ArrayStoreException. Under -Dcn1.checkedCasts the emitted covariance check
ran BEFORE the setter that reports the first two, so a store with both a bad index
and an incompatible value reported the value -- hiding the exception the program
should have seen. (The null case was worse and is already fixed: the check
dereferenced the array to reach its class.)

The store check is now guarded by the same access validation the setter performs,
so the first two exceptions are thrown first and in the right order. The setter
re-checks, which on the in-bounds fast path costs one comparison.

…e collector

This backs out my own fix from earlier in this branch. Marking the attached
ThreadLocalData threadActive around the context switch reads as obviously correct
and is a REGRESSION, worse than what it fixed.

A virtual thread's state has no pthread of its own -- deliberately, it may run on
a different carrier next time. The collector's wait for a lightweight thread is
`while(t->threadActive) usleep(500)` with no bound, and the forced-stop escalation
that exists to break exactly that wait is gated on gcPthreadValid, which is
permanently false here. So the flag converts a POSSIBLE race on the state's object
stack into a CERTAIN hang for any virtual thread that computes without reaching a
safepoint: the collector waits for a flag only that thread can clear, and cannot
stop it.

What the same report asked for has two halves, and the other one stands. The C
stack is covered: cn1GcScanParkedVirtualThreads scans every registered virtual
thread whether or not it is running, so no virtual stack goes unscanned during the
windows where `running` is set but the carrier has not switched yet. That fix is
independent of this revert and stays.

The half that remains open -- a collection walking the state's object stack and
pending-allocation table while the virtual thread mutates them -- is documented at
cn1SpawnVirtualThread along with why the obvious fix is worse and what the real one
is: carrier association. A running virtual thread executes ON a carrier that does
have a stoppable pthread, so the collector should satisfy the wait by stopping the
carrier. That needs the stop handshake to stop being per-TLD (the signal handler
records into the TLD of the thread it runs on, which is the carrier's), i.e. a
change to the collector's stop protocol rather than to the spawn path -- not
something to improvise in an API that has no callers yet.

With -Dcn1.checkedCasts the covariance check broke correct programs, which is the
worst direction for a check to fail in. A generated array class records arrayType
as the BASE element class rather than the immediate component: String[][] has
dimensions 2 and arrayType String, not String[]. So `values[0] = new String[1]`
asked whether a String[] is an instance of String, got no, and threw
ArrayStoreException on a store the language requires to succeed.

Restricted to dimensions == 1, where arrayType genuinely IS the component type.
Multidimensional stores lose a diagnostic that did not exist before this feature
was added; the alternative was breaking working code. Covering them properly needs
the immediate component type, either emitted per array class or reconstructed from
dimensions at runtime, and the macro says so.

Also fixes a timeout in VirtualThreadRuntimeTest that could never fire. It read
the child's output inline and then called waitFor: the read blocks until the child
closes stdout, so a binary that hangs -- exactly what a context-switch regression
produces -- never reached the timeout, and the Maven job would sit until CI killed
it instead of the test failing. Output now drains on its own thread, with a bounded
join so a wedged reader cannot reintroduce the hang the change removes.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
This corrects my own change earlier in this branch, and the reasoning behind it
was the defect. "A thread it cannot stop is one it does not scan either way" is
true only while the thread genuinely cannot be stopped. Failures are often
TRANSIENT -- a stop signal briefly masked is enough -- and the thread recovers.
Skipping it then meant cn1GcScanThreadNativeStack returned without scanning a
RESPONSIVE thread, for roughly the next sixty collections, so references held only
in frameless C locals or registers went unmarked and could be reclaimed while
still in use. A GC correctness bug, traded for a performance win.

The two things I had conflated: the cost was never the SIGNAL, it was the WAIT.
One unresponsive thread consumed the entire 2,000,000-spin budget -- 267ms of a
280ms mark. So a thread with a failure history is now probed with a 20,000-spin
budget rather than skipped. Healthy threads answer within about 200 spins, which
is a hundredfold margin for one that is merely slow, at one percent of what a hang
used to cost; and a thread that recovers is picked up on the very next cycle
instead of up to 64 later.

Verified across the GC suites, including GcUncooperativeThreadIntegrationTest --
the issue #5537 scenario this logic exists to serve: 6/6.

Boolean shares its kind with boolean and Character with char, so the direct writer
treated both as primitives. Only the boxed form can be null, and both handled it
wrongly in opposite ways: a null Boolean was unboxed by a ternary and threw
NullPointerException, and a null Character went through String.valueOf(Object),
which returns the four characters "null", and was then QUOTED -- so an unset field
serialised as the string "null". The map path stores the value and lets JSONWriter
see the null, emitting JSON null for both.

Told apart by binaryName, which does distinguish them, with a temporary in each so
a getter is not evaluated twice, and charValue() so String.valueOf resolves to the
char overload rather than the Object one.

The parity test carries both fields now, and they discriminate by construction:
against the old code the Boolean case throws (a test error) and the Character case
produces a quoted "null" against the map path's null (an assertion mismatch).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
CODENAME_ONE_ASSERT is plain assert(), which NDEBUG compiles out of every release
build. So once all NUMBER_OF_SUPPORTED_THREADS slots were taken, threadOffset
stayed -1, the assertion vanished, and the next statement executed
allThreads[-1] = i -- writing over whatever precedes the table. A debug build
aborted; a shipped one carried on with silent memory corruption, which is the
worse of the two. Capacity exhaustion is a condition to report, not to assert.

It returns 0 now, and cn1SpawnVirtualThread already checks for that.

Pre-existing rather than new: every OS thread creation runs this path too. A
virtual thread per request only makes reaching the limit realistic.

The partially built state is unwound through cn1FreeThreadLocalDataFields,
extracted from cn1ReleaseThreadLocalData rather than copied, because the release
path also decrements nThreadsToKill and a state that never reached allThreads was
never counted as living. Duplicating the frees would have drifted apart, and
getting that counter wrong would have been a slow leak in the opposite direction.

Verified across the GC suites including GcUncooperativeThread and GcHeapIntegrity:
6/6. (The translator build says nothing about this -- it compiles Java, and the C
here is only compiled by those tests.)

…reeing

Two defects, and both are mine from earlier in this branch.

THE HANG I REVERTED WAS STILL REACHABLE. Removing the threadActive assignment from
cn1VirtualThreadResume did not close it, because CN1_RESUME_THREAD does the same
thing and every bracketed native goes through that macro. getThreadLocalData()
resolves to the VIRTUAL thread's state while one is running, so a virtual thread
that read a file or a socket returned with its state marked active, and nothing
lowers it again until the next yield. Same unbounded while(threadActive) wait, same
forced-stop escalation gated on gcPthreadValid and therefore unavailable, same
stall. I checked the call site I had edited and not the shared path through it.

The guard states the invariant the code always needed: mark active only what the
collector can STOP. gcPthreadValid is exactly that question. A real thread is
unaffected; a virtual thread's state stays down, which is where it was before any
of this. Roots do not depend on the flag -- cn1GcScanParkedVirtualThreads scans
every registered virtual thread whether or not it is running.

THE EXHAUSTION CHECK INTRODUCED A USE-AFTER-FREE. pthread_setspecific binds the new
state to TLS above the capacity search, so the failure path I added freed a state
the key still pointed at: every later getThreadLocalData() on that thread would
return memory that had been given back. That is worse than the out-of-bounds write
it replaced, because the thread keeps using the stale pointer rather than failing.
Unbound before the free.

Also: System.getenv(null) throws NullPointerException as the API requires, instead
of returning null and making an invalid argument indistinguishable from an unset
variable.

Verified across the GC suites, 6/6, including GcUncooperativeThread and
GcHeapIntegrity.

The HTTP/2 descriptor cap was consulted AFTER the submission it was meant
to prevent. The turn check stops the session that crossed it, but every
other session wakes on a control frame and submits one more first, so the
real bound was the cap plus one per connection -- and a peer holding its
window shut can keep waking them. It is consulted before submitting now.
Answered rather than deferred, because the handler has already opened the
descriptor: holding the response would hold the very thing being
rationed, so it is closed and the stream gets a 503.

The Lambda loop had a third way to leave an invocation unresolved. Two
branches now stop when the failure cannot be reported; the branch where
the API REFUSES a result -- a 413 for an oversized payload is the ordinary
case -- ignored the same boolean and polled on.

And a contract endpoint's short, byte or float parameter was parsed wide
and cast down, which wraps rather than fails: "40000" for a short reached
the handler as -25536, "256" for a byte as 0, and 1e100 for a float as
infinity. These are client-controlled values. They are parsed at their own
width now, so an out-of-range one is a 400 like any other unparseable
number -- which is what the BOXED forms beside them always did, since
Short.valueOf throws. Only the primitives were cast.

Verified: 42 processor tests, 33 HTTP tests and 2 Lambda integration tests
pass, with the native verifier strict.

A Float was widened to double by the ByteSink writer and printed with the
double's spelling, so 1.2f went out as 1.2000000476837158; the String
writer calls Float.toString and sends 1.2. HTTP/1.1 writes through the
first and HTTP/2 through the second, so ONE handler answered two different
numbers depending on which protocol the client negotiated. It keeps the
value's own spelling now.

This is the second defect of exactly that shape -- byte[] was the first,
and its branch already carries the warning -- so the selftest now COMPARES
the writers over floats, doubles, longs past 2^53, ints, booleans, a
String and a byte[], rather than asserting either one's output. That is
the check that would have caught both. With the fix reverted it reports
"expected <1.2> but was <1.2000000476837158>" and three more.

Separately, a relative class-level @RequestMapping("api") produced the
route "api/users". Every request target starts with "/", so nothing could
ever match it and the endpoint answered 404 from a build that reported
success. The method-level path was normalised this way already; the
class-level one was not.

Verified: 27 controller processor tests, 33 HTTP tests, and the selftest on
both runtimes.

The @RestController half was taught two weeks of lessons that this half
never heard.

A literal beside a placeholder was refused. The dispatcher emits every
route without a placeholder before every route with one, so /users/me
beside /users/{id} is decided by that order -- the literal takes its own
path and everything else falls through. The comment on the check even says
literal-first cannot break a tie between two DYNAMIC shapes, which is
true, and equally means it DOES break this one. Two dynamic shapes still
clash.

A placeholder nothing binds was accepted, and that is worse than a typo:
the client substitutes the placeholder's own NAME, so it asks for
/users/id literally, while the server matches any value there and passes
it to nobody. Both halves compile and agree on a route whose variable can
neither be supplied nor read. The @Path-to-placeholder direction was
checked; this is the reverse.

StaticFiles refused a verb before deciding the path was even its own, so
a POST to an unrelated path came back 405 instead of reaching the 404 the
caller meant -- and in a chain that tries files first it would shadow a
later dynamic handler entirely. The mount is checked first now.

Verified: 18 contract processor tests pass, and reverting either fix fails
its own test.

Master scoped the cast-semantics gate to what ParparVM actually
translates, so this port is no longer scanned and the comment's reason for
the instanceof was out of date. The guard itself stays: the extra is
whatever the sending application put there, so the cast really can fail.

AndroidImplementation.java is a CRLF file. Editing it with a script that
reads and rewrites the whole text normalised every line to LF, so a
twelve-line change was recorded as 18,364 added and 18,354 removed. It is
rebuilt from the committed bytes here with the same twelve lines applied,
and the diff is 12/2 again.

This is not cosmetic. CodeQL's analysis is diff-informed, so a file that
appears wholly rewritten is treated as wholly new: 19 path-injection
alerts were raised against this PR, ten of them in this file, for code it
never touched -- and the same rule in the same file is already dismissed
on master. The finding was mine to cause and mine to undo.

check-native-signatures could report success having checked the backend
against NOTHING. When the ParparVM sources fail to compile the classes
path is left empty -- deliberately, so the entry would skip -- but an
empty path expands to "$REPO_ROOT/", which IS a directory and passes every
test: the entry took the repository root as its classes, found no natives
to disagree with, and printed the same "== backend" as a real pass, while
--require-all counted it as covered. The comment above it already claimed
the behaviour that was never implemented. An empty path is now a port that
could not be built.

Demonstrated both ways, and the broken half was not hypothetical: this
machine's tools/env.sh JDK is missing currency.data, so the backend
compile really does fail here. With it, the gate now skips loudly and
--require-all exits 2; with a working JDK all five ports including the
backend are checked and it exits 0.

A contract body typed Map<String,Integer> was accepted. A map's VALUES are
handed over as the parser built them -- nothing walks them applying the
declared type, the way collection elements are walked -- and the parser
answers Long for every JSON integer, so the map is a map of Long and the
handler's first read as an Integer throws. Only the types the parser
really produces may be declared.

Note the first rule I wrote for this was too strict, and five existing
tests said so: this half GENERATES codecs, so List<Dto> and typed
collections do decode. The rule is now the narrow one the defect actually
describes.

And a DTO's float field took a plain cast, which saturates: a finite 1e100
became infinity, a value JSON cannot express and the client did not send.
Range-checked now, like the scalar text path -- otherwise the same value
is accepted or refused depending on where it appears.

Verified: 50 processor tests, and reverting the map rule fails its test.

… unreadable

Float.parseFloat does not FAIL on a value too large for a float -- it
answers infinity. So a controller's float path, query or header parameter
took 1e100 straight past the generated guard and the handler ran on a
number the client never sent. Every other width throws, which is why only
this one slipped: the guard was right for five types out of six. With the
check reverted the new test reports "expected:<400> but was:<200>". An
input that really spells an infinity is still accepted, which is what
parseFloat means by it.

That is the third place this exact narrowing has bitten -- the contract's
scalar text path, a DTO's float field, and now the controller's guard.

Separately, and NOT fixed here: staging resources for translation does not
make them readable. The backend translates as app type "clean", and only
the linux and windows types embed classpath resources into the binary,
while the clean runtime's Class.getResourceAsStream returns null
unconditionally. So getResourceAsStream finds the file under cn1:backend,
on the JVM, and finds nothing in the packaged executable -- which is the
same silent divergence the staging step was added to close, one layer
down. Packaging now says so, naming the count, instead of leaving it to be
found in production.

Embedding them properly is a translator change plus a native plus a hook
in Class, which vm/JavaAPI shares with iOS. That belongs in its own change
with its own review, not at the end of this one.

Verified: 51 processor tests, and reverting the float guard fails its test.

… one

A failed malloc for the request body sent the request ANYWAY. The
POSTFIELDS block is skipped when the copy is null, so an allocation
failure produced the same request with an empty body and reported success
-- S3's putObject would replace the object with nothing and tell the
caller it worked. A request whose body could not be made is now a failed
request.

CURLOPT_TIMEOUT caps the WHOLE transfer, so an upload or download that was
progressing perfectly well was aborted at thirty seconds for no reason but
its size. The Java SE arm sets a READ timeout, which fires only when a
single read stalls, so an object large enough to take half a minute
transferred under cn1:backend and failed once packaged. Replaced with a
connect deadline and a stall deadline, which is libcurl's spelling of the
same rule.

And a multi-range request was answered 416. That status asserts that NONE
of the requested ranges exist, and "bytes=0-99,200-299" over a 256KB file
is entirely satisfiable -- this server just does not assemble
multipart/byteranges. Not being able to honour a Range is not the same as
the Range being unsatisfiable: RFC 9110 14.2 says to ignore the field and
send the whole representation, which every client understands. An
unparseable Range is ignored for the same reason. A range that really
cannot be satisfied is still 416, and its test still passes.

Verified: 33 HTTP tests with the native verifier strict; reverting the
range rule fails with "expected: <200> but was: <416>".

The HTTP/2 body budget was per SESSION while the descriptors beside it were
counted per process, and the descriptors were right. A session pausing
itself after one oversized body still lets the process hold that body times
every connection, and the connection ceiling is in the thousands: small GET
requests from peers that never open their windows could pin gigabytes of
native memory. Counted across the process now, at the three points that
already existed -- submitted, drained, freed -- so the figure cannot drift
from what the bodies really hold.

Http1Date accepted dates that are not dates. Every field is read at a fixed
offset and handed to a civil-date routine that NORMALISES whatever it gets,
and nothing checked the suffix or the ranges, so "Sun, 99 Nov 9999
99:99:99 BAD" parsed to the year 9999 -- and StaticFiles read that as newer
than the file and answered 304, sending no content to a client that had
nothing cached. With the check reverted the selftest reports
"expected <-1> but was <253405860039000>" and three more like it. The whole
IMF-fixdate shape is verified now, including that a day exists in its
month; the one real form still parses and still formats back.

And a contract Map<Integer,String> was accepted. A JSON object's names are
strings, always, so integer keys arrive as String: a lookup finds nothing
and iterating the entries throws, while encoding turns them back into
strings. The value half was already checked; the key half was not.

Verified: 34 backend tests with the native verifier strict, 48 processor
tests, and the new native symbol is checked -- giving it the wrong return
token fails the build naming it.

Comment thread vm/backend/src/com/codename1/backend/aws/Aws.java
The review found one toLowerCase() on a protocol token, in the SigV4
canonical headers. There were SEVEN in this branch's code, and the repo has
a standing rule about exactly this, so they are all fixed together rather
than one per round:

  Aws          signed header names -- a Turkish locale folds If-Match to a
               dotless i, so the canonical request stops matching what AWS
               computed and every such request is rejected as a bad signature
  Jwt          the "bearer " scheme prefix -- folded, it stops equalling the
               constant, and EVERY bearer token is refused
  StaticFiles  the file extension that keys the MIME table -- ".PNG" would
               not find image/png
  Web x2 arms  header names, both storing and looking up -- getHeader answers
               null for a header that is present, in both arms

Jwt takes regionMatches(true, ...) rather than a fold: it compares character
by character, is locale independent, and allocates nothing. The rest get the
six-line ASCII fold the tree already carries in four other classes -- copied
rather than shared, as CLAUDE.md says.

Two decode fixes as well. A @Body Collection<Note> fell through to a guarded
cast because only List and Set were recognised as collection shapes, so the
handler got a collection of Map and threw on its first element; the three
are now one predicate, since any place that lists two of them and not the
third has the same hole. And a numeric annotation default that is not a
number bound ZERO -- defaultValue="oops" on an int -- while the non-empty
default also suppressed the required-value guard, so an absent parameter
reached the handler as a value nobody wrote. That is the author's own
configuration and is now refused at build time.

Verified: 51 processor tests, 34 backend tests, and the selftest checks the
bearer fold on both runtimes.

Comment thread vm/backend/native/cn1_backend_http2.c
Comment thread vm/backend/impl/javase/com/codename1/backend/Web.java
The INBOUND ceilings were per session, the same asymmetry the response
bodies had a round ago. A session may hold 32MB of request buffers within
its own limit, and the connection ceiling is in the thousands, so a handful
of clients keeping streams just under it exhaust the machine while every
session stays honest. Headers and bodies are both counted across the
process now, released in cn1H2FreeRequest, which is the one place a
request's memory goes away.

The two charges are shaped differently on purpose. A header field is
charged unconditionally, because r->headerBytes above it already counts
those bytes and the free gives back exactly that -- the two have to move
together. A body chunk is TESTED first and charged only after the append
succeeds, because the free gives back bodyLength: charging first would
strand the bytes of an append that then fails to grow the buffer, and the
counter would drift up until it refused everything. The load-then-add can
overshoot by a chunk when two sessions cross together, which is the right
trade for a coarse memory guard against a lock on the data path.

And -Dcn1.backend.sqlite=false could not produce a binary. Turning the
engine off is two changes: without -Dcn1.sqlite=true the translator leaves
cn1_sqlite3.h out, but cn1_backend_db.c is compiled either way and its
SQLite half includes that header at line 133 unless CN1_BACKEND_NO_SQLITE
compiles it to stubs instead. build.sh has always set both; the Maven goal
set only the first, so the option advertised as saving the engine failed at
the C compile. Verified from the other direction: the script's path, which
sets the macro, builds the selftest with the engine off and produces a
working 3.1MB binary.

The third finding in this round -- locale folding in Web -- was already
fixed in 8141d2d; the review ran against an older commit.

Verified: 34 backend tests with the native verifier strict.

Comment thread vm/backend/src/com/codename1/backend/HttpServer.java Outdated
An HTTP/1 request body was allocated at its DECLARED length before a byte
of it had arrived. Content-Length is a claim, and this loop then holds that
memory until the rate allowance expires -- so an unauthenticated client
sends a header and nothing else, and the server reserves 8MB on its word.
The connection ceiling is in the thousands.

The buffer grows toward the declared length as the bytes ARRIVE instead,
which is the only figure a client cannot lie about. Doubling is what keeps
that affordable: growing by each read's size was the original defect here,
about a thousand resizes and 4GB of copying for one 8MB upload. Every
growth is capped at the declared length, so the last one lands exactly on
it and the invariant the rest of the class depends on -- buffer.length
means "bytes readable" -- is unchanged. A body smaller than the starting
chunk still takes a single exact allocation, as before.

No global counter for this, deliberately. A reservation would have to be
threaded through borrowed thread buffers, owned copies and every failure
path, and one leaked reservation wedges the server for good -- a worse
failure than the one being fixed. Growing with the data needs no counter at
all.

The HTTP/2 side had the ordering wrong for the same reason: the
process-wide check sat AFTER h2.respond(), which is the call that copies
the body into native memory, so it had already spent what it was meant to
withhold -- and every session wakes on a control frame and spends one more.
Checked before the copy now, answering 503 rather than copying.

And a map value declared as a nested container was accepted: Map<String,
Set<String>> passed because only the outer raw type was tested, while a
JSON array always arrives as a List and nothing converts a map's values at
any depth. Every level is now checked against what the parser really hands
over -- which is Map and List, not Set or Collection.

Verified: 33 HTTP tests with the verifier strict, including the 8MB upload
and the partial-request fixtures, and 51 processor tests.

"?limit=" is a parameter the client SENT, and queryParam distinguishes it
from one that was left out -- but the generated guard treated null and
empty alike, so an empty value passed as valid and to<Type> substituted the
default or zero. The handler then ran on a number nobody wrote, which is
the same defect as accepting "zz" for an int, and that has answered 400
since the guard was added. Only ABSENT bypasses parsing now; the declared
default still applies when the parameter really is omitted, which the test
checks in both directions. With the change reverted it reports
"expected:<400> but was:<200>".

Also removes a stray javadoc left above the wrong method by an earlier
edit in this branch.

Verified: 55 processor tests.

Comment thread vm/backend/native/cn1_backend_http2.c
The process-wide counter could be driven DOWNWARD by rejected headers.
r->headerBytes is incremented at the top of the callback, but the global
was charged after the per-stream and per-session checks -- so a header
block that breached either was counted by headerBytes, never added to the
global, and then SUBTRACTED from it by cn1H2FreeRequest when the stream
was reset. Repeat that and the total goes negative, at which point the cap
it exists to enforce admits everything: a client can spend oversized
rejected header blocks to buy room for request bodies it would otherwise
not be allowed to hold.

Charged in the same breath as r->headerBytes now, ahead of every return,
so the two figures move together whichever way the stream ends. That is
the rule the body path already follows from the other direction -- tested
first and charged only after bodyLength grows, because there the free
gives back bodyLength.

Audited the invariant rather than just this path: the global is the sum
over live requests of bodyLength + headerBytes. Neither field is ever
reset (both only ever grow), every charge sits with the growth it accounts
for, and cn1H2FreeRequest is the only thing that destroys a request.

Verified: 33 HTTP tests with the native verifier strict.

…or chose

The inbound budget counted what ARRIVES in a request and not the request
itself. CN1H2Request embeds CN1_H2_MAX_HEADERS slots, so one is about a
kilobyte before a single header byte is read -- and a client that opens the
advertised stream concurrency with minimal headers keeps every payload
counter near zero while holding one per stream, per connection. It is a
fixed cost per open request, so it is charged as one, at the allocation
and released in cn1H2FreeRequest with the rest of what the request holds.
The stream is refused rather than the connection, which is the
proportionate answer to a process that is momentarily full.

Separately, cn1:backend scanned for main methods while ignoring the entry
point the generator had already chosen. Annotation processing writes it to
META-INF/cn1-backend-main and cn1:backend-package reads it; the run goal
did not, so a module holding any demo or tool with a main was refused as
ambiguous even though the choice was made and recorded. The marker is
consulted first now, and the scan stays for modules written by hand, which
have no marker.

Verified: 33 HTTP tests with the native verifier strict.

P2 Badge Enable CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS with a real version check

When the packaged runtime sends an S3 request for a key containing a dot segment, such as a/../b, this guard is always false because CURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS is an enum member declared through CURLOPT(...) in curl.h, not a preprocessor macro. Libcurl therefore normalizes the URL to /b while Aws signs /a/../b, causing SignatureDoesNotMatch and diverging from the Java SE runtime; use a LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM check or enable the option unconditionally for the bundled supported versions.
