Howdy:
I'm evaluating java profilers, and I'm looking for profilers that support windows, solaris, linux, and mac os/x. Are there any plans to extend YourKit to work on Mac OS/X with Intellij IDEA?
Thanks!
Mac OS/X support?

Unfortunatelly Apple is exteremely non-cooperative. They even do not responde to submitted bug reports. Probably if we had direct contacts to responsible people things could be better... Anyway, I don't believe that any changes are possible in Mac Java 1.4, so we have to wait until Java 5.0 is ported to Mac and have to hope it would work properly.

profiler only, no agent?
Is it possible to run the profiler on OS X connecting to agents on Linux/win32 and to use it on OS X to analyze snapshots created on other platforms?Vladimir Kondratyev wrote:http://www.yourkit.com/faq/index.jsp#macosx

I understand your position regarding OSX, and I know that Apple is not "playing by the rules" , but you should still consider some sort of integration, especially for NonSwing applications.Vladimir Kondratyev wrote:Currently it's not possible, because profiler UI isn't tested on OS X (and I suppose has numerous problems due to numerous OSX-Swing problems)
Here are my reasons:
- there is a very widespreaded Apple application called WebObjects, that has a very big user base.
- WebObjects still has no real concurrence (may Jetbrains Fabrique will be ), and the most of the big banks are using it.
- making a "simple" WebObjects "integration" (or just nonSwing OSX support), would bring you a huge potential customer base .
