Java Runtime Inspection - Pax Reflector

« Spring JMX Example | Main | Java FTP Example »

If an exception occurs, sometimes it's difficult to build and restart your running software system. Especially if you are using complex associated and distributed software components which hold states. The solution could be the usage of a runtime inspection mechanism. The Pax Reflector project supports the manipulation of object instances at runtime level. The following steps describes the usage of the Pax Reflector in OSGI environments.

Step 1 - Checkout and Build: 

svn co https://scm.ops4j.org/repos/ops4j/projects/pax/reflector
mvn clean install
Step 2 - Download Pax-Runner
Step 3 - Starting of the OSGI Engine 
sh bin/pax-run.sh --profiles=web,config \
  mvn:org.ops4j.pax.reflector/pax-reflector-service \     
  mvn:org.ops4j.pax.reflector/pax-reflector-servlet \    
  mvn:org.ops4j.pax.reflector/pax-reflector-types \  
  mvn:org.ops4j.pax.reflector/pax-reflector-html \ 
  mvn:org.ops4j.pax.web-extender/pax-web-ex-whiteboard
Step 4 - Look at http://localhost:8080/reflector
