jvisualvm - How to provide an icon and another nam

问题:

I have an application where I want to be able to provide my own icon and descriptive text for jvisualvm. (I do not want to configure jvisualvm, just provide better metadata from my application)

The best would be at runtime since we have distinct behaviour determined at runtime, which would be nice to have reflected in the label/icon. Makes it easier to 1) locate ourselves, but also 2) for endusers to locate in a support situation.

I did search for this earlier, but did not locate this easily. Is it buried in the JMX-stuff?

Suggestions? I have full control over the application in question.

You need to create a new ApplicationType. Have a look here for how to do it
