I guess I sometimes use OID very loosely and interchangeably wth oop.. and I guess I shouldn’t. As you most likely know, in OQL you can run stuff like "select heap.findObject(0x12345ab).parent" so being able to tie in the output from jcmd to a heap dump might be useful.

Sorry, missed this in the output.
