JProfiler Integration with Java Project

This article explains that how to integrate JProfiler tool for your java project in sun solaris operating system. 

 Things to know before integrating JProfiler

·         Sun Solaris Platform type – Sparc 32-bit/64bit or x86

·         JDK Home Directory and Version –  

·         JVM on which your project runs - 32 bit JVM or 64 bit JVM

      ·         Free Custom Ports like 8888, 8889 etc  

Installation of JProfiler in Solaris Sparc.

chmod  a+x  jprofiler_unix_5_2_2.sh

./ jprofiler_unix_5_2_2.sh

During installation set the JDK Home same as configured for your project. [export  $JAVA_HOME]

---

 

Checks to be done after installation

Check whether the JVM on which your project runs is 32-bit or 64-bit using the Java System Property

“sun.arch.data.model”

32-bit JVM:

cd /bin/solaris_sparc

ldd libjprofilerti.so

64-bit JVM:

cd /bin/solaris_sparcv9

ldd libjprofilerti.so

This is done to check for any missing dependencies for this dynamic library

After verification, update the Environmental Variable for Dynamic Libraries in Solaris with “/bin/solaris_sparc” or   “/bin/solaris_sparcv9”.

Export LD_LIBRARY_PATH in [//.dtprofile] for permanent updates .

In the your project Startup scripts

Append the location of the agent jar

-agentlib:jprofilerti=port=${PORT} -Xbootclasspath/a:/bin/agent.jar

Along with the java class execution command For eg:

Add the following in your application ‘startup’ script,

-agentlib:jprofilerti=port=${PORT} -Xbootclasspath/a:/<….>/jprofiler5/bin/agent.jar

$JAVA_HOME should be same as configured for JProfiler.

Sharing of JVM Libraries to be disabled à -client -Xshare:off

Port number to be same as configured for the Application Session in JProfiler

JProfiler Configuration Steps  

 

In case your project runs on a 64-bit JVM select the 64bit JVM check box.

 

Specify the Integration Port on which the application will be started for JProfiler to profile it

Based on whether the JVM configured is a 32-bit or 64-bit, dynamic linked libraries from

“/bin/solaris-sparc “ or “/bin/solaris-sparcv9 “ directories will be used respectively.

 

Select the following check boxes:

Record CPU Data on Startup and Record Allocations on Startup and click Edit on Profiling Settings

 

 

Click on Application Settings icon . Specify a unique session name to save it for future use.

Select the Start Command check box and use File chooser to select the startup script to be associated with the Profiling Session.

Also enter the command line arguments to the startup script if required. In this example,

Your Project Command line arguments

Start Profiling!!!!
