Hi,

I am having problem when i try to run jmap heap profile command in openjdk.

The output of java -version is like below in my system.

[ercanlier at ercanlier ~]$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_17"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.7) (fedora-34.b17.fc12-i386)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)

After running jps on console i try to profile heap usage of my application
but stucked with the problem Could not find symbol
"gHotSpotVMTypeEntryTypeNameOffset"


all output of jmap is:

[ercanlier at ercanlier ~]$ jmap -heap 3774
Attaching to process ID 3774, please wait...
sun.jvm.hotspot.debugger.NoSuchSymbolException: Could not find symbol
"gHotSpotVMTypeEntryTypeNameOffset" in any of the known library names

Debugger attached successfully.
sun.jvm.hotspot.tools.HeapSummary requires a java VM process/core!

My os is fedora 12, the server which hosts the application is Redhat, java
versions are both the same. I am in trouble with profiling the application
because of that with details... Thanks in advance. Regards.
