Version 0.6.0 of the jMechanic profiler plugin for Eclipse has been released. The new version includes the following major changes:
- Support for Eclipse version 3.0 (Bug 869022)
- Export of data to CSV files from views. (Thanks to Brian Guan)
- Inverse Heap Dump View (Thanks to Russell Black)
- Heap reference graph view (Thanks to Russell Black)
- Port selection not updated (Bug 911498)
- Minor changes to the record pump handling (Bug 911464)
- Clean up dual launch of HPROF listener (Bug 911572)
More information can be found in the plugin help and on the project website at http://jmechanic.sourceforge.net.
Those that have followed jMechanic will have noticed that there has
been a long absence of new releases. At this point, the Eclipse Hyades
project (http://www.eclipse.org/hyades/) provides a viable free and
open-source alternative to jMechanic for those that are interested.
Although there is no guarantee that there will never be another
released version of jMechanic, the chances would improve substantially
if someone were willing and interested in taking over the project. If
you have any interest in taking over the jMechanic Sourceforge project
and moving it ahead, please contact me at setera@users.sourceforge.net.
