With this virtual machine, you are able to develop a wide range of Java-based applications. Additionally, you have the option of using third-party tools.
JRockit
JRockit is a Windows program that provides various tools and a complete runtime environment for developing applications using the Java programming language.
General notes
The JRockit is a high performance JVM developed to ensure scalability, manageability and flexibility for Java applications. It provides seamless interoperability across multiple hardware and operating configurations. With this utility, users are able to gain optimal performance for apps running on either 32-bit or 64-bit architectures. It is also necessary to note that this development software is especially suited for running WebLogic Server.
Development tools
The development tools offered by this utility help you design, execute, debug, as well as document programs written in the Java programming language. By default, it includes the standard instruments commonly distributed with the typical Java JDKs. While most of these are proven to work well with Java development projects, you are able to use any third-party tools, compilers, debuggers and IDEs.
Mission Control
In addition to the tools provided in the JDK, JRockit offers a dedicated client for management and analysis called the Mission Control. This program enables you to monitor, manage, profile and eliminate memory leaks in your Java application without significant performance overhead. It is low, due to the fact that the utility uses data which is collected as a part of JRockit’s adaptive dynamic optimization.
