Hi Erik,
I am not sure if Perf Counters could be disabled. If yes, then
PerfCounter MBean must throw appropriate exception while getting MBeanInfo.
I don't know about tests for PerfCounter. The webrev contains tests for
PerfCounter MBean.
I am not sure how we will be breaking other's code. Could you please
elaborate?
Thanks
Harsha

Hi Harsha,
How will perf counters be supported?
Can they be removed at anytime, or only at major releases etc. Do we
have tests for them? I think it would be good know, and perhaps state
somewhere so we don't break people's code.

Hi All,
Please review the below RFE,
JDK-8007141 <http://JDK-8007141> : Introduce Dynamic MBean exposing
the perf counters.
with webrev at,
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hb/8007141/webrev.00/
Appreciate if I can get inputs for below.
1. Location of HotSpotPerfCounterMBean. It is located at
src/jdk.management/share/classes/com/sun/management/internal. It can
be moved to src/jdk.management/share/classes/com/sun/management if
required.
2. Javadoc comments for HotSpotPerfCounterMBean. Not sure if it is
adequate.
3. Description for each attribute of MBean. I am using getUnits(),
getVariability(), and getFlags() for description. I am not sure if
that is the right description. Appreciate inputs from someone who
knows perf counters well.
Thanks
Harsha
