When I run, I get the message:
[YourKit Java Profiler 4.0 EAP build 524] Using JVMPI
[YourKit Java Profiler 4.0 EAP build 524] *** HINT ***: we recommend using Java 5.0 and JVMTI when possible!
[YourKit Java Profiler 4.0 EAP build 524] Listening on port 1229...
I installed (and believe I am using) JDK 1.5.0_01. My app writes out some info about its environment:
Java Version: 1.5.0_01, Sun Microsystems Inc.
Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM, mixed mode
Java Max Heap Size: 530907136
Java Home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_01\jre
How can I force it to use JVMTI?
Thanks.

Here's what I found in the help files (%yp-home%/docs/agent.htm). Seems you have to use a different JVM parameter to specify the profiler agent to use.

BTW: I think I haven't seen a switch for that in the IDEA integration. Is this only shown (or default) when using JDK 5 or has this to be configured manually?Step 2: add appropriate VM parameter to the command line of Java application
The parameter depends on Java version.
To use Java 1.3 or 1.4 with JVMPI API, use -Xrunyjpagent parameter
E.g.: java -Xrunyjpagent FooClass
To use Java 5.0 or higher with JVMTI API, use -agentlib:yjpagent parameter
E.g.: java -agentlib:yjpagent FooClass
Java 5.0 note: Java 5.0 supports both deprecated JVMPI API and new JVMTI API. It is desired to use JVMTI when possible. Java 5.0 supports both -agentlib:yjpagent (uses new JVMTI API) and -Xrunyjpagent (uses deprecated JVMPI) parameters. Please make sure -agentlib:yjpagent is specified.
