What is the cause of JVM exit code 1073807364?
I've built a RCP-based application, and one of my users running on Windows XP, Sun JVM 1.6.0_12 had a full application crash. After the app was running for two days (and this is not a new version or anything), he got the nice gray JVM force exit box, with exit code=1073807364.
He was away from the machine at the time, and the only thing I can find near that time in the application logs was some communication with the database (SQL Server by way of Hibernate). There's no hs_ files or anything similar as far as I can tell. Web searching found a bunch of crash reports with that exit code in a variety of applications, but I didn't see any fundamental explanation of what causes it.
Can anyone tell me what causes it? Is there additional information likely to have been dumped that could prove useful?
Answer
From what I can tell, this error code (0x40010004) arises in all sorts of situations, with (as you noted) no obvious common thread.
However this page says "0x40010004" means "the task is running"! So, I would surmise that the correct way to interpret it is as saying "this tasked has exited in a way that prevented it setting a proper exit code".
I don't know if this will help, but I would try looking in the Windows Event logs to see if the problem is being reported there.
