Popis: Bytecode instrumentation is a valuable technique for trans-parently enhancing virtual execution environments for pur-poses such as monitoring or profiling. Current approaches to bytecode instrumentation either exclude some methods from instrumentation, severely restrict the ways certain methods may be instrumented, or require the use of native code. In this paper we compare different approaches to bytecode in-strumentation in Java and come up with a novel instrumen-tation framework that goes beyond the aforementioned lim-itations. We evaluate our approach with an instrumentation for profiling which generates calling context trees of various platform-independent dynamic metrics.

Abstrakt:Bytecode instrumentation is a valuable technique for trans-parently enhancing virtual execution environments for pur-poses such as monitoring or profiling. Current approaches to bytecode instrumentation either exclude some methods from instrumentation, severely restrict the ways certain methods may be instrumented, or require the use of native code. In this paper we compare different approaches to bytecode in-strumentation in Java and come up with a novel instrumen-tation framework that goes beyond the aforementioned lim-itations. We evaluate our approach with an instrumentation for profiling which generates calling context trees of various platform-independent dynamic metrics.
