vim'ing snapshot looks like a corrupted file

by **whatismyname** » Mon Feb 04, 2019 11:29 pm

i set up yourkit to my java program and ran:

java -jar yjp-controller-api-redist.jar localhost 10001 capture-performance-snapshot

to generate a snapshot file

when I vim'd the snapshot file, it was not readable as if it is corrupted. how can I read this snapshot file?
I do not have GUI and this is all done through terminal

The snapshot is a binary file. The only way to open it is to use the profiler UI. Transfer the file to a machine where you have the profiler UI installed.

is there a command to generate a plain text file or similar (json,yaml) where I can vim?

YourKit profiler allows to export data in different formats. Please find more details at https://www.yourkit.com/docs/java/help/export.jsp
