[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Profiler] - Mac OS X: Success!

[msolnit]

Hi everyone.  I have successfully built and tested the Memory Profiler (JVMTI) on Mac OS X Intel.  I'll e-mail the binary and compile script to Clebert, and hopefully it can be included in the next release.

For those of you who wish to reproduce at home:

1) Download the latest CR4 release.

The following steps produce an Intel binary of the JVMPI library (Runtime Profiler):
2) chmod +x jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmpi-src/macos/compile.sh
3) jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmpi-src/macos/compile.sh

The following steps produce an Intel binary of the JVMTI library (Memory Profiler):
4) Convert the jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmpi-src/macos/compile.sh file from a DOS text file into a Unix text file.  The way that I did this (lacking a version of dos2unix) was to simply open the file in an editor, copy and paste the contents into a new file, and then save the new file over the old one.
5) chmod +x jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmpi-src/macos/compile.sh
6) jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmti-src/macos/compile.sh

The following steps install the two profiler libraries where Mac Java can find them:
7) cp jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmpi-src/macos/libjbossInspector.jnilib /Library/Java/Extensions
8) cp jboss-profiler-1.0.CR4/jvmti-src/macos/libjbossAgent.jnilib /Library/Java/Extensions

The following step alters JBoss so that it loads the Memory Profiler agent:
9) Edit JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.conf and add the following line to the end: JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -agentlib:jbossAgent"

The following steps run a short test:
10) Start (or re-start) JBoss.
11) Browse to http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&name=jboss.profiler%3Ambean%3DJVMTIClass
12) Find the "java.lang.String listClassesHTMLReport()" operation and invoke.

You should get a nice HTML report.  If so, you're done!

Sincerely,
Matt
