Hi, 



http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ykantser/8022229/webrev.03/ 

Moved ToolConfig functionality to JstatdTest (renamed JstatdHelper) and deleted ToolConfig. The tests are also changed a little: 

public class TestJstatdDefaults { 

public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable { 
JstatdTest test = new JstatdTest(); 
test.doTest(); 
} 

} 

Hope it looks better now. 


Thanks, 
Katja

This looks a lot better. Just few more comments: 

ToolConfig.java 
  L72 - "getToolOptins" -> "getToolOptions" 
  L35 - why is port stored as a String? Also, could be renamed to rmiRegistryPort to clarify what it is for. 


  Why are some tool-specific options added in getToolOptins() and some in the getJpsCmd()/getJstatdCmd()/... methods? Maybe changing getToolOptins() to only return the host part of the options and moving the rest of the setup to getJpsCmd()/getJstatdCmd()/...? 




Thanks,

Hi, 

I've done following big changes after the Staffan's review: 
- ported JDKToolLauncher, JDKToolFinder, Plattform from hotspot testlibrary ( http://hg.openjdk.java.net/hsx/hotspot-rt/hotspot ) for re-using in ToolConfig 
- changed "verifiy output form jps, jstat"-methods to ignore warnings from VM 
- tools will be launched without -vmoptions 

plus made fixes for all minor comments . 

If it's a good idea to push testlibrary changes separately I can make a separate patch for them.

test/sun/tools/jstatd/JstatGcutilParser.java 
  The parse() method could be made more robust by discarding any lines that come before the header lines. This can happen if the JVM outputs a warning message for some reason before running jstat. 
   
  I don't like the special-case for the CCS column in verify() - took me a while to find it. Should we add a new enum called PERCENTAGE_OR_DASH to handle that instead? 


  L67: getType() should be private. 




test/sun/tools/jstatd/JstatdHelper.java: 
  L54: Does verifyJpsOutput() work correctly with output of the form: 


1234 -- main class information unavailable 
1235 -- process information unavailable 


  Also: same comment here as for JstatGcutilParser.java: sometimes the JVM outputs warning messages before the output from the tool. 


  L46: "attach" is probably not the best way to describe the operation of jps. It does not attach to the process, it merely lists the running processes. Perhaps runJps() is a better name?

test/sun/tools/jstatd/ToolConfig.java 
  ToolConfig + Utils.get(Forward)VmOptions() seem to be doing similar things to JDKToolLauncher in the hotspot testlibrary. It is unfortunate if we have two ways to do similar things in the two different testlibraries. Would it be possible to reuse the hotspot code here instead? 


  You have also changed the test. Previously the tools were not launched with the jtreg -vmoptions (test.vm.opts), whereas now they will be. Is this intentional?  




General comments: 

Can't we do: 
  * @library /lib/testlibrary 
instead of 

  * @library ../../../lib/testlibrary 
? 


It seems that at least some of the functionality should be reused for re-writing the jstat and jps tests as well. I guess we can look at that at a later time, though. 


While I applaud the move from shell scripts to Java code, I can't shake the feeling that the shell scripts were easier to read and follow. The Java code is much more verbose and spread out over multiple helpers and libraries, making it harder to grasp. That may be the price we have to pay, though.
