Dmitry,

I’d like to propose the following change to get prettier output (more in line with GC.class_histogram):

diff --git a/src/share/vm/services/diagnosticCommand.cpp b/src/share/vm/services/diagnosticCommand.cpp
--- a/src/share/vm/services/diagnosticCommand.cpp
+++ b/src/share/vm/services/diagnosticCommand.cpp

     vmSymbols::finalizer_histogram_klass(), THREAD);
   assert(k != NULL, "FinalizerHistogram class is not accessible");

+  output()->print_cr("Unreachable instances waiting for finalization");

+  output()->print_cr("-----------------------");
   for (int i = 0; i < result_oop->length(); ++i) {
     oop element_oop = result_oop->obj_at(i);
     oop str_oop = element_oop->obj_field(name_fd.offset());
     char *name = java_lang_String::as_utf8_string(str_oop);
     int count = element_oop->int_field(count_fd.offset());
-    output()->print_cr("Class %s - %d", name, count);
+    output()->print_cr("%10d  %s", count, name);
   }
 }


A couple of nits:

diagnosticCommand.cpp:359 - extra space after =
diagnosticCommand.cpp:361 - spelling: finlalization -> finalization
FinalizerInfoTest.java:69: - spelling: intialized -> initialized
FinalizerInfoTest.java:71 - I’d like to see the ; on a new line


Thanks,
/Staffan
