/**
* A Java virtual machine.
*
* A VirtualMachine
represents a Java virtual machine to which this
* Java virtual machine has attached. The Java virtual machine to which it is
* attached is sometimes called the target virtual machine, or target VM.
* An application (typically a tool such as a managemet console or profiler) uses a
* VirtualMachine to load an agent into the target VM. For example, a profiler tool
* written in the Java Language might attach to a running application and load its
* profiler agent to profile the running application.
*
* A VirtualMachine is obtained by invoking the {@link #attach(String) attach} method
* with an identifier that identifies the target virtual machine. The identifier is
* implementation-dependent but is typically the process identifier (or pid) in
* environments where each Java virtual machine runs in its own operating system process.
* Alternatively, a VirtualMachine
instance is obtained by invoking the
* {@link #attach(VirtualMachineDescriptor) attach} method with a {@link
* com.sun.tools.attach.VirtualMachineDescriptor VirtualMachineDescriptor} obtained
* from the list of virtual machine descriptors returned by the {@link #list list} method.
* Once a reference to a virtual machine is obtained, the {@link #loadAgent loadAgent},
* {@link #loadAgentLibrary loadAgentLibrary}, and {@link #loadAgentPath loadAgentPath}
* methods are used to load agents into target virtual machine. The {@link
* #loadAgent loadAgent} method is used to load agents that are written in the Java
* Language and deployed in a {@link java.util.jar.JarFile JAR file}. (See
* {@link java.lang.instrument} for a detailed description on how these agents
* are loaded and started). The {@link #loadAgentLibrary loadAgentLibrary} and
* {@link #loadAgentPath loadAgentPath} methods are used to load agents that
* are deployed either in a dynamic library or statically linked into the VM and make use of the JVM Tools
* Interface.
*
* In addition to loading agents a VirtualMachine provides read access to the
* {@link java.lang.System#getProperties() system properties} in the target VM.
* This can be useful in some environments where properties such as
* java.home
, os.name
, or os.arch
are
* used to construct the path to agent that will be loaded into the target VM.
*
*
The following example demonstrates how VirtualMachine may be used:
*
*
*
* // attach to target VM
* VirtualMachine vm = VirtualMachine.attach("2177");
*
* // start management agent
* Properties props = new Properties();
* props.put("com.sun.management.jmxremote.port", "5000");
* vm.startManagementAgent(props);
*
* // detach
* vm.detach();
*
*
*
* In this example we attach to a Java virtual machine that is identified by
* the process identifier 2177
. Then the JMX management agent is
* started in the target process using the supplied arguments. Finally, the
* client detaches from the target VM.
*
* A VirtualMachine is safe for use by multiple concurrent threads.
