Compile Runtime Agent
Microbat has an Eclipse user interface which runs an agent (i.e., microbat instrument agent) to track program execution information. Moreover, the agent component serves as both a running component and a library to interact with the Eclipse interface.
The following is the design dilemma:
Note that, during development, an Eclipse project can depend on either a library or another Eclipse project, but not a general Java project.
However, the project of microbat_instrumentator
is designed as a Java project for compiling as a general Java library.
It indicates that the microbat
project cannot depend on microbat_instrumentator
project.
Thus, our solution is that, we compile microbat_instrumentator
project into a microbat_instrumentator
library (i.e., jar file) and let microbat
eclipse project depend on the library.
Therefore, during development, we need to recompile the microbat_instrumentator
project and update the microbat_instrumentator
library depended by microbat
project.
Here, is the solution:
- Run
microbat.tools.JarPackageTool
, the console will output the following message:
The path can differ regarding your machine.
Deploy instrumentator.jar to D:/linyun/git-space/microbat/microbat/lib/instrumentator.jar
- Make sure that the generated
instrumentator.jar
in the the project folder$project_root_folder/microbat/lib/instrumentator.jar
.
