Hi Jimmy/Alexei,
Im starting to look at implementing shared memory transport for jdwp.
It's very early days at the moment, but I have been able to open the
shared memory space (created by the RI running as server) and read some
data from it. I have also been able to mirror this behaviour, with
Harmony running in server mode. I will start to check in some changes
soon, initially for the build system to start building dt_shmem.dll on
Windows. After that I will start checking in some of my code and add
some changes to the jpda test setup so it can run the tests in shared
memory mode.
Regards,
Oliver

Hi,

Jimmy,
I fully support your idea, but cannot follow the discussion fully. The
old thread mostly discussed a shared memory protocol, didn't it? This
thread no longer mentions a shared memory, but discusses an API update
instead. May be all these things are parts of the whole picture, but
the picture slips out of my mind. I would suggest being merciful to my
google-weakened brain and write some justifications of the decision
taken.
Yes, I never forget shared memory, but it seems we need more
information of that (according to the conclusion of last discussion).
However java6 updating is easier to work on and we've got all
information on java spec, as a result, IMO, we'd better start from the
easy beginning, and leave hard work alone until we find some other way
to resolve it, do you think so? :) (Maybe someone already has a plan
on it :)
BTW, as today is friday, have a nice weekend :)
For example, I believe Mikhail L. justification: "I don't think that
time and efforts are an issue. The time flies when you are having fun
:)" is quite explanatory. Or you may come up with something more
rational.
Thanks.
