Basically a java app has fallen over whilst executing some native code, such as c or c++, and crashed the VM.

In java you're able to have methods that are 'native' meaning that they contain non java code, so that you can do things that java won't normally let you do.

Some of the core java libs are written in native code as well, like things to do with threads.

and looking at the messages, what you've got is some c code (or something) that tried to access memory outside of the area that it was allowed to - what windows would call a general protection fault I believe.

I'd only worry about it if it happens a few more times
