JProbe Error: Unable to instrument for line profiling

[Roland Pennings]

Hello,
When I try to do a profiling of my application with Jprobe 5.0 I get the following error (after launching a servlet):
JProbe Error: Unable to instrument b2b2c/metier/ConfigurationTaches for line profiling
JProbe Error: Non-critical functionality may be affected.
JProbe Fatal Error: Unable to instrument b2b2c/metier/ConfigurationTaches for method profiling; unable to continue
JProbe Exiting
Does somebody have an idea what is happening ?
Thanks,
Roland

I would guess that the class in question was compiled without the debugging information that provides line numbers.

A common cause of this error is trying to run JProbe against large methods. Instrumenting large methods could increase the size of the method over the 64Kb limit imposed on the compiled code.

You can add a filter for this method, to not include in instrumentation. This will encapsulate the calls to this method up the call tree.

Cheers
