Thanks Riyad. I’ve just replied to your email. Let’s see what JProfiler team can find out.

You should have received JProfiler’s support email. Just in case I’m quoting it here:
Thanks for your email. I am no eclipse expert, but I just downloaded the SDK
and I can active the Profile command directly after installation. There is no
profiler there of course, so the toolbar button is disabled.

We register JProfiler like this in our plugin.xml file:

<launchDelegate

delegate=”com.jprofiler.integrations.eclipse.delegates.LocalJavaDelegate”
id=”com.jprofiler.integrations.eclipse.delegates.LocalJavaDelegate”
modes=”profile”
name=”JProfiler”
type=”org.eclipse.jdt.launching.localJavaApplication”>
</launchDelegate>

You can see that the extension point
org.eclipse.jdt.launching.localJavaApplication is from the JDT. With eclipse
3.4, there came a new built-in profiler support that supports more than one
profiler at the same time. Maybe this is what broke the support.

Victor — and anybody else running into this… after some research with help from the JProfiler team, we found the issue. By default MyEclipse hides the “Profile” capability that comes from WTP that JProfiler needs.

You can show it again by going to Window > Prefs > General > Capabilities > (Advanced Button) then clicking WTP-Extras to re-show them. That will re-introduce a lot of WTP cruft into the interface that might be confusing (like multiple Web Service menus) but it will allow you to use JProfiler no problem using the installer steps I provided.

We are fixing this for 7.1 so you don’t need to do this. Sorry for the hickup.

Hurrah!! Thank you so much for your help! Now I can go on rampage profiling!

Again – really appreciate your help Riyad!

Hi all,

I followed your instructions and successfully integrated JProfiler into MyEclipse 7.1. However, I cannot profile J2EE application (running with Tomcat). All I can profile are: JavaApplet, JavaApplication … found in the Profile Configurations panel.

Can you show me how to profile J2EE application?

Thanks a lots,

[Riyad Kalla]

khangmd,

I’m not sure how to do this with JProfiler.. I suppose you will have to manually attach it to the server instance that MyEclipse starts up — you can find information about that process under the Debug perspective… other than that, you might check with the JProbe folks.
