JOL v0.6

[Aleksey Shipilev]

Hi,

JOL 0.6 is released and available at Maven Central (thanks to Evgeny
Mandrikov, as usual). Notable changes:

 *) HotSpotLayouter now closely resembles the actual Hotspot field
layouter. Among other things, it now handles FieldAllocationStyle,
@Contended, and other things real JDK supports. This allows to model the
instance sizes more accurately. This was made possible with the
contribution from Timur Gibadullin:
   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/CODETOOLS-7901019

 *) New CLI tools: "heapdumpstats", which provides the heap dump
statistics without needed to load the heap dump into memory in full;
"shapes", which prints the class shapes (e.g. field types and orders)
from the JAR/heapdumps.

   http://hg.openjdk.java.net/code-tools/jol/rev/30c3fbadf049

As usual, CLI tools are easily available in uberjar:

http://central.maven.org/maven2/org/openjdk/jol/jol-cli/0.6/jol-cli-0.6-full.jar

 *) "internals" and other CLI commands with supplied classpath was
failing to introspect the classes down the road:
   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/CODETOOLS-7901795

 *) HS Serviceability Agent support now works with the latest JDK 9 EA,
which removed sa-jdi.jar:
   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/CODETOOLS-7901796

 *) @Contended support is revamped to work (almost) fine with recent JDK
9 EA changes:

   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/CODETOOLS-7901800

Enjoy!
