Profiling a Java application external to the workspace

To profile a Java application that is stored somewhere in the file system, use Integrated Agent Controller instead of the Agent Controller.

  1. Click Run > Profile.... The Profiling wizard opens.
  2. In the left pane (Configurations), select External Java Application.
  3. Click New. A new configuration is created with the default name New_configuration. Optionally change that name to something more descriptive.
  4. On the Host tab, in the Default Hosts section, select localhost:<port>.
  5. Turn to the Main tab and fill in the Class name and Class path to set up your application.
  6. Turn to the Profile Settings tab and select the type of profiling data that you want to collect.
  7. Click Profile. The application will be launched by Integrated Agent Controller in profiling mode, starting the profiling agent. The workbench will be attached to the profiling agent automatically and the profiling activity can begin.

Note

If the local Agent Controller is running, that local Agent Controller will be used instead of Integrated Agent Controller.
