Legacy app using Java 5

[malikmm]

Hi,

We have a legacy app that has been running for 8 years on java 5 and because of business reasons cannot be updated to a later version of java. I am using 8.0.24 and have a current licence that includes the latest version of yourkit 2014.

I am profiling a remote linux application running on an OC4J server. This is my first project with the yourkit profiler and I would like to understand if there is anyway I could use a later version of the yourkit profiler. I have found that snapshots taken with 8.0.24 can be viewed with yourkit 2013 build 13086.

Thanks

Mohammed

Hi Mohammed

snapshots taken with 8.0.24

Please use the latest 8.0.x build 8.0.30 instead.

can be viewed with yourkit 2013 build 13086

You can open version 8 snapshots in newer UI, and this may be a good thing because you get access to newer and better features. However, please note that some information from an older version snapshot may be ignored when loading it with a newer version of the UI. In this case open the snapshot in the version which created it.

Best regards,
Anton
