MAT内存分析工具-独立版安装

 一、背景

在java程序运行中发生OOM的时候，我们可以使用强大的内存分析工具MAT进行问题跟踪，但由于习惯了使用idea开发，再为了MAT下载个eclipse太麻烦，所以安装MAT独立版。

二、安装

下载地址：https://eclipse.org/mat/downloads.php，如下

选择自己系统相应的版本下载，下载完得到一个zip文件，笔者这里使用的是Mac OSX (Mac/Cocoa x86_64)，解压后得到mat文件

如果这里双击打开没问题，则可以开始正常使用了；如果双击提示异常，那么继续往下看，提示如下

 

 

按照提示路径进入日志文件，异常信息:

这是eclipse的一个bug，记录地址：https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=339647#c5

解决办法(以mac为例)

右键mat显示包内容，进入Contents->MacOS下面，会有一个MemoryAnalyzer的命令。

打开终端，进入此路径找到MemoryAnalyzer，运行

./MemoryAnalyzer -data ./dump

成功启动，当然敲全路径启动也是可以的，dump文件名可以自定义。
