Hello everybody. I am trying to use dtrace to monitor native calls (from the Hotspot VM) into Java code. Such calls occur, for instance, when invoking a method using reflection.
I found this web page about dtrace probes in hotspot: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/vm/dtrace.html I tried out the probes. Especially, the Call*Method*-entry probes of hotspot_jni looked promising. However, they do not seem to be triggering, e.g. for reflective calls. Could the problem be that these probes only monitor calls through JNI but Hotspot does not actually use JNI to dispatch these calls into Java code? If so, does anybody else have an idea of how to monitor reflective calls into Java code?
