I would like to propose a project (jkstat for short) to provide a Java binding to the kstat library, so that system kstats can be accessed from Java applications. The project would aim to provide the basic API and JNI interface, and a set of example tools to demonstrate its use. This would provide a simple mechanism for a java application to gain access to any system kstats, and would allow the construction of graphical system observability tools to display the vast wealth of information collected by kstats. The interface would also allow the Chime DTrace visualization tool to link DTrace probes with kstat data. Initial leaders for this project are myself and Tom Erickson. I have already prototyped an implementation that demonstrates such a project to be both feasible and useful. I would be delighted to receive any comments or suggestions - or code assistance - that would improve the project. See http://www.petertribble.co.uk/Solaris/jkstat.html (Note that this proposal does not imply that my existing prototype is preselected as the implementation to be used for the project, although I believe it to be a useful starting point. It's going to need extensive revision at the very least.) -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
