Details:

with the attached testclass on the classpath (javaaddpath), 
it is no problem to set iVal but setting bVal results in an error: 

octave:2> javaObject('eu.simuline.octave.OctaveInterfaceTester')

octave:3> java_set(tester,'iVal',-127)
octave:4> java_set(tester,'bVal',-127)
error: [java] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Can not set byte field
eu.simuline.octave.OctaveInterfaceTester.bVal to null value
error: called from
    java_set at line 48 column 16


Comment: at the moment, the java interface is nearly UNUSABLE 
in particular because of bug 48013. 
But there are many further bugs I submitted. 
I would be willing to provide bugfixes for all of them, 
but still no enough input to do so. 
The bugs refer all to a small number of files 
and so I must do one after the other. 

Please help me working on java integration.
