[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Profiler] - JVMTI committed on Branch_2_0

[clebert.suconic@jboss.com]

I just committed JVMTIInterface on JBossProfiler2.

One of the good things on JBoss profiler 1 was the JVMTI module, that can be automated through JNI. There are a few tests using it on JBoss AS, and I think this is perfectly aligned with JBoss Profiler 2.

Jason was looking for a replacement of the JVMTI for a final version on JBAS, so I think this would be a good solution.

I've also added a few features around memory profiler. 

I had a few leaks to chase on JBoss Messaging 2, and the best way to find them was by creating a few reports instead of spending a lot of time on tinkering with JVMTI Interface.

It is possible now to call a method startMemoryProfiler(InetAddress). That 
method will start a small embedded Web Server (available on JDK 1.6+), and you would be able to link on references through the JVM (All live).

I've kept the build using Cmake. It should be fairly simple to compile it.

Also, the current code already has some support for inspecting methods. It's crashing but it's an initial version already.
