| Provides the API to attach to a Java<sup><font size=-2>TM</font></sup> |
| virtual machine. |
| |
| A tool, written in the Java Language, uses this API to attach to a target |
| virtual machine (VM) and load its tool agent into the target VM. For |
| example, a management console might have a management agent which it uses |
| to obtain management information from instrumented objects in a Java |
| virtual machine. If the management console is required to manage |
| an application that is running in a virtual machine that does not include |
| the management agent, then this API can be used to attach to the target |
| VM and load the agent. |
