Can we fire JCONSOLE from an applet with out crashing the application
Hi,
I am trying to pop up a jconsole on clicking a process name in the browser.
For this i used applets. Based on the process name clicked i decide the jmxUrl to which the jconsole has to connect to.
I was able to do this using a signed jconsole.jar and then by invoking the main method of JConsole.
Now the problem is that when i close the jconsole the whole browser application gets closed/crashed. How can we avoid this.
Is it possible to extend from JConsole?
Thanks In advance.

Hi,
JConsole is a tool in the JDK that was designed to run as a standalone Swing application to be run through the <jdk>/bin/jconsole binary file.
JConsole runs in a JFrame with the JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE set as the default close operation and thus cannot be run as an applet as such without making the browser exit when you exit JConsole.
Anyway, have a look at the JConsole source code at http://jdk6.dev.java.net/.
I haven磘 entirely assessed how difficult it would be to make it run as an applet but I hope it isn磘 too much work.
