     2 This HAT source originally came from the http://hat.dev.java.net site.

     3 

     4 The utility has been named 'jhat' in the JDK, it is basically the same tool.

     5 

     6 Q: Where do I make changes? In the JDK or hat.dev.java.net?

     7 

     8 A: It depends on whether the change is intended for the JDK jhat version only,

     9    or expected to be given back to the java.net project.

    10    In general, we should putback changes to the java.net project and

    11    bringover those changes to the JDK.

    12 

    13 Q: I want to build just jhat.jar instead of building entire JDK. What should I do?

    14 

    15 A: Use ant makefile (build.xml) in the current directory. This builds just the

    16 jhat sources and creates jhat.jar under ./build directory.

    17 

    18 To run the built jhat.jar, you can use the command:

    19 

    20     java -jar build/jhat.jar heap_dump
