Hi Alan, thanks! One more question: I find no platform dependent coding on for the shared memory transport layer for Unix, just for Windows. I would have expected some mmap() calls somewhere, and a LoadLibrary(dt_shmem). Looking closer, I also cannot find a libdt_shmem.so on a jdk10 linux build.
How does shared memory transport work on Unix? ..Thomas On Wed, May 3, 2017 at 11:03 AM, Alan Bateman <alan.bate...@oracle.com> wrote: > > > On 03/05/2017 09:47, Thomas Stüfe wrote: > > : > > And for the socket transport, it is not needed at the jdi side because > there the socket transport is reimplemented in pure java? > > That's right.
