I'm guessing that it does... because if I understand things correctly the server monitor uses JMX, turning it on and off is done programmatically, and that uses the instrumentation classes in Java 1.5.
I'm making gross assumptions and have huge gaps in my understanding of things... so pay absolutely no attention to me. ;) I did, however, find the page I was looking for with the bit I knew I'd read: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/instrument/package- summary.html Starting Agents After VM Startup An implementation may provide a mechanism to start agents sometime after the the VM has started. The details as to how this is initiated are implementation specific but typically the application has already started and its main method has already been invoked. In cases where an implementation supports the starting of agents after the VM has started the following applies: The manifest of the agent JAR must contain the attribute Agent-Class. The value of this attribute is the name of the agent class. The agent class must implement a public static agentmain method. The system class loader ( ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader) must support a mechanism to add an agent JAR file to the system class path. ... /snippage So yeah, I guess the deal is to find out if this is available in CF or not...
