Greetings Rick, Thank you for engaging in my question.

Well since Java is able to be managed, and Java is cross-platform, there must be a cross-platform way to do such magic. Are you suggesting that within Java there is a bunch of Windows'ish code cross-platform? These "language management" tools are able to peek inside the interpreter as it is running, inspect variables, watch threads executing, inspect variable pools and sizes of those pools, etc... They also "tag" requests, so with agents on web / app server / db tiers, you are able to see a request come into the web server, head to the application server, what SQL it executes, reply from app server, reply from webserver. And if MQSeries and MQ Broker is involved in the transaction, you are able to see those hops as well. The master server for the Compuware dynaTrace product stitches all of the information coming from the various tiers back together again. I know, I am back serving in big corporate America, liking their toys, and at the same time do not want to loose touch with the tools I know well in my tool box. Thus, I am inquiring into the possibility of connecting ooRexx to these "language management" tools so I could in-turn say to my client, "do not rule out ooRexx, it is able to work with your language management tool." This client is the one that has the Application Server Architecture which runs Object REXX (Win 2.1.?) code as its development language for building applications. Quite similar to my own Rexxphi Application Server vision. Alas, that Application Server Architecture is now old, development vendor got bought out by another vendor years ago, and is being retired.
