Hi Take a look at btrace. It is DTrace like dynamic instrumentation tool for JVM (DTrace : System :: btrace : JVM, though DTrace is superset of btrace).
It allows you to instrument JVM at bytecode level with no changes in code. It might also help going forward to enhance clojure to insert btrace probes. These probes can help expose higher level details to instrumentation tools like btrace and would help professional developers immensely. - Akhilesh On Oct 24, 5:03 am, BerlinBrown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Oct 23, 6:42 pm, BerlinBrown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > I asked this on common lisp thread but I want to work with clojure as > > well: > > > With clojure and I am assuming the introspection properties.
