How to get CPU, RAM and Network-Usage of a Java7 A

Question

I found this older article how-to-monitor-the-computers-cpu-memory-and-disk-usage-in-java and wated to ask, if there is something new in java 7. I want to get the current CPU-, RAM- and netzwork-Usage of my App periodically. It has to work for linux (mac) and windows. The data must not be extremely detailed, 3 values would be enough (cpu: 10%, Ram 4%, Network 40%). Would be cool if the data is just for the app and not the whole os-system, however this would work, too.

Thank's for help

Answer 1

why cant you just use like bellow,

  try {
      for (String ni : sigar.getNetInterfaceList()) {         
        NetInterfaceStat netStat = sigar.getNetInterfaceStat(ni);   
        total+=netStat.getRxBytes();        
      }
    } catch (SigarException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

what is the difference???

Answer 2

Not much has changed since then unless it was done by another group. below are some of the significant changes that were included in Java 7 SE. Sadly none of them are what you are looking for.

javamelody i have used before it is pretty simple and I was able to get it running in a short amount of time https://code.google.com/p/javamelody/

below is another alternative https://github.com/oshi/oshi

Answer 3

I would use the Metrics java library: http://metrics.codahale.com/

It comes with Sigar integration: https://github.com/cb372/metrics-sigar

answering my own question ;P some code i have written...
