1 The support for JUL needs to be explicitly enabled when lttng-ust is
2 configured, e.g.:
3
4 dependency: openjdk-7-jdk
5 ./configure --with-java-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk --with-jni-interface
6
7 On Debian system for instance you can simply use the "default-java" path:
8
9 ./configure --with-java-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java --with-jni-interface
10
11 Note that the OpenJDK 7 is used for development and continuous integration thus
12 we directly support that version for this library. However, it has been tested
13 with OpenJDK 6 also. Please let us know if other Java version (commercial or
14 not) work with this library.
15
16 The LTTng Java Agent for JUL support is typically installed here:
17
18 /usr/local/lib/lttng/java/liblttng-ust-jul.jar
19
20 After building, you can use the "liblttng-ust-jul.jar" file in a Java project.
21 It requires "liblttng-ust-jul.so" which is installed by the build system when
22 doing "make install". Make sure that your Java application can find this shared
23 object with the "java.library.path".
24
25 In order to enable the agent in your Java application, you simply have to add
26 this as early as you can in the runtime process.
27
28 import org.lttng.ust.jul.LTTngAgent;
29 [...]
30 private static LTTngAgent lttngAgent;
31 [...]
32 lttngAgent = LTTngAgent.getLTTngAgent();
33
34 This will initialize automatically the singleton LTTngAgent, and will
35 return when session daemon registration is done. If no session daemon is
36 available, the execution will continue and the agent will retry every
37 3 seconds.
38
39 Once registered, it is adds a thread inside your Java application and will be
40 able to automatically use every Logger object and map them to the jul_event
41 tracepoint of the JNI interface.
