  Returns:

  the Java virtual machine specification vendor.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPropertiesAccess method doesn't allow access to this system property.

  See Also:

  SecurityManager.checkPropertyAccess(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String)

• getSpecVersion

  String getSpecVersion()

  Returns the Java virtual machine specification version. This method is equivalent to System.getProperty("java.vm.specification.version").

  Returns:

  the Java virtual machine specification version.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPropertiesAccess method doesn't allow access to this system property.

  See Also:

  SecurityManager.checkPropertyAccess(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String)

• getManagementSpecVersion

  String getManagementSpecVersion()

  Returns the version of the specification for the management interface implemented by the running Java virtual machine.

  Returns:

  the version of the specification for the management interface implemented by the running Java virtual machine.

• getClassPath

  String getClassPath()

  Returns the Java class path that is used by the system class loader to search for class files. This method is equivalent to System.getProperty("java.class.path").

  Multiple paths in the Java class path are separated by the path separator character of the platform of the Java virtual machine being monitored.

  Returns:

  the Java class path.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPropertiesAccess method doesn't allow access to this system property.

  See Also:

  SecurityManager.checkPropertyAccess(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String)

• getLibraryPath

  String getLibraryPath()

  Returns the Java library path. This method is equivalent to System.getProperty("java.library.path").

  Multiple paths in the Java library path are separated by the path separator character of the platform of the Java virtual machine being monitored.

  Returns:

  the Java library path.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPropertiesAccess method doesn't allow access to this system property.

  See Also:

  SecurityManager.checkPropertyAccess(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String)

• isBootClassPathSupported

  boolean isBootClassPathSupported()

  Tests if the Java virtual machine supports the boot class path mechanism used by the bootstrap class loader to search for class files.

  Returns:

  true if the Java virtual machine supports the class path mechanism; false otherwise.

• getBootClassPath

  String getBootClassPath()

  Returns the boot class path that is used by the bootstrap class loader to search for class files.

  Multiple paths in the boot class path are separated by the path separator character of the platform on which the Java virtual machine is running.

  A Java virtual machine implementation may not support the boot class path mechanism for the bootstrap class loader to search for class files. The isBootClassPathSupported() method can be used to determine if the Java virtual machine supports this method.

  Returns:

  the boot class path.

  Throws:

  UnsupportedOperationException - if the Java virtual machine does not support this operation.

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and the caller does not have ManagementPermission("monitor").

• getInputArguments

  List<String> getInputArguments()

  Returns the input arguments passed to the Java virtual machine which does not include the arguments to the main method. This method returns an empty list if there is no input argument to the Java virtual machine.

  Some Java virtual machine implementations may take input arguments from multiple different sources: for examples, arguments passed from the application that launches the Java virtual machine such as the 'java' command, environment variables, configuration files, etc.

  Typically, not all command-line options to the 'java' command are passed to the Java virtual machine. Thus, the returned input arguments may not include all command-line options.

  MBeanServer access:
  The mapped type of List<String> is String[].

  Returns:

  a list of String objects; each element is an argument passed to the Java virtual machine.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and the caller does not have ManagementPermission("monitor").

• getUptime

  long getUptime()

  Returns the uptime of the Java virtual machine in milliseconds.

  Returns:

  uptime of the Java virtual machine in milliseconds.

• getStartTime

  long getStartTime()

  Returns the start time of the Java virtual machine in milliseconds. This method returns the approximate time when the Java virtual machine started.

  Returns:

  start time of the Java virtual machine in milliseconds.

• getSystemProperties

  Map<String,String> getSystemProperties()

  Returns a map of names and values of all system properties. This method calls System.getProperties() to get all system properties. Properties whose name or value is not a String are omitted.

  MBeanServer access:
  The mapped type of Map<String,String> is TabularData with two items in each row as follows:

  Item Name	Item Type
  key	String
  value	String

  Returns:

  a map of names and values of all system properties.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkPropertiesAccess method doesn't allow access to the system properties.
