EVALUATION The javadoc for HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean is at: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/jre/api/management/extension/com/sun/management/HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean.html In JDK 6, you can get HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean through the platform MBean Server (ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer()). In JDK 7, a new method is added to obtain a platform MXBean of a specified type something like this: HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean mxbean = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMXBeans(com.sun.management.HotSpotDiagnosticMXBean.class); See 6610094 Add generic support for platform MXBeans of any type.
