How to Install/Run Eclipse Memory Analyzer

Former Member — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 14:35:44 GMT

I want to run the Eclipse Memory Analyzer on SUN Solaris. I downloaded the Solaris files from the Eclipse website. It contains a .zip file that I have extracted and placed on a Solaris server where I can do some testing.

Does that complete the installation process? How is the application started?

I searched the Eclipse website and found no instructions for Unix and no general usage/how-to type documentation.

Thanks,

Dan

Hai,

After unzipping the zip file you will see a file called 'MemoryAnalyzer', You need to run this file to get the memory analyser console.

You can try the below link to download the same from SDN.

After downloading/unzipping the analyzer you will find 'MemoryAnalyzer.sh' file which needs to be executed in order to get the console.

Well, this download is different. Why is that? The one off the eclipse website does not have an .sh file for example.

Either way I still get a similar error when I run this:

Hi Dan,

only the heap dumps need to be taken on Solaris.

The Memory Analyzer could be run on Windows machine and the already collected heap dump from the Solaris machine could be analyzed there.

The Memory Analyzer is just a tool and it is not supported on all platform on which the Netweaver Java Server is supported, because it is not necessary at all.

Best regards,

Sylvia
