[News.eclipse.test-and-performance] Re: problems with profiling tools 
Hi,

thaks for the quick reply. Unortunatelly, the back slashes were somehow removed by the news posting procedure (probably for security reason, i didn't realize I should replace every backslash with a pair of them). I have them all in my configuration. The path is working if I cut and past it to the command line. So sorry for this.

I have the same felleing about how profiler works - standalone just attaches to the process or creates a new one, writes the tracefile and exits. Controlled sessions behave other way, but I do not know how to test them manually. I only wanted to demonstrate that simple profiling at the jvm level works fine. I also do not know if there are other people experiencing the same problem or if it is only some strange interference with something other in my case. But I tested it on several computers so I think there could be a problem .... 

Thank you very much for the bug report.

Sincerely,

 David



Hi David,

Looking closely at your serviceconfig.xml, I see a few problems with the way the paths are written. For example, jvm="C:Program FilesJavaj2re1.4.2_06binclientjvm.dll". Note the lack of slashes here. I'm assuming you used the SetConfig.bat setup script to configure the agent controller (as opposed to writing the file yourself).

If my understanding of the data collection side of things is correct (correct me if I'm wrong), running in standalone refers to the JVMPI agent running without the agent controller, so the serviceconfig.xml would not be used in this case. This would probably explain why it works in standalone mode and not with the agent controller.

I've opened a bug on your behalf (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=80334); feel free to add yourself to the CC list to get notification of when it's fixed. I marked it as critical - we can't release 3.2 with something like this. Thanks for reporting this. In the meantime, you can try adding the slashes manually and see how it goes. 

Thanks,
Curt
