As an alternative to a specific child application would it be possible /
reasonable to use jshell
as the child? Or use the jshell API to manage the child?
Then you can feed it any java expressions/functions that are interesting
and get back any data needed.

Have you looked at the com/sun/jdi test framework? The java framework is quite
good and stable. The shell script framework should be removed.

Staffan,
1. This is one more small step forward to remove wide variety of
Exit0.java (and similar) programs from jdk tests.
I will not happen today, but I hope, sometimes in a future, all tests
that launch a child process will do it the same way.
2. We have couple of old SA-JDI tests in jdk.hotspot.agent/test these
tests have to be cleaned up and ported to JTREG, we need a framework to
do it.
3. It's hard to debug JDI failures that comes from nightly without small
standalone reproducer. Especially if emulator or slow hardware is involved.
I use this class as a base for such reproducer, find it helpful, and
would like to have it in the test library.

Can you explain more? There is very little information here or in the
bug about what problem you are trying to solve. Why aren’t the
current JDI tests (jdk/test/com/sun/jdi) sufficient? I have not read
your code, and I would like more background before I do so.

Everybody,
Please review an RFE

This fix adds basic LingeredApp based reproducer (and template for
more sophisticated reproducers) to debug JDI and underlying JVMTI
issues.
