jclasslib is a
library and a collection of utilities and applications to view and manipulate Java
class files. jclasslib's core functionality consists of mechanisms to read, modify,
and write class files compiled for the JVM. It has a class file browser built on
top of this, which can be used as a standalone GUI application or as a Netbeans module.
Changes: This release features major bug fixes in the class file viewer
application and adds support for the current version of Netbeans.
The performance of reading and writing class files in the bytecode is more than doubled,
and new concepts and facilities have been introduced for the manipulation of
constant pools and instructions lists.
JProfiler is a fully dynamic profiler based on the Java virtual machine
profiling interface (JVMPI). It is targeted at J2EE and J2SE applications,
and features CPU profiling, memory profiling, thread profiling,
and VM telemetry information.
