[Jikesrvm-researchers] About VM_MethodListener

[Janice Ng <ngj...@ir...>]

Hi there,

I am trying to use Jikes RVM to gather runtime informations on Java 
applications. More specifically, I would like to trace every single 
method invocation (including calls to constructor) which occurred during 
runtime, and most importantly, in the right calling order.

I understood that the class VM_MethodListener can be used to collect 
method invocation samples. Now, my question is, how should I use it so 
that it takes into account ALL the method calls in the application 
during runtime?

Am I on the right track ? Does anyone have a clue how I should proceed 
to trace all method calls in a Java application using Jikes RVM?

Thank you,
Janice
