It covers historical and modern JVM log formats from Sun/Oracle, IBM, HP, and BEA, and can be used either as a GUI application or from the command line. ### Projektgeschichte The current repository is a fork of tagtraum industries' GCViewer. Its GitHub metadata says tagtraum development stopped in 2008 and that this fork aimed to improve support for Sun/Oracle Java 1.6 and later garbage-collector logs, including G1. The README credits Hendrik Schreiber for GCViewer up to 1.29. ### Adoptionsgeschichte GCViewer fits the Java operations era in which verbose GC logs were exchanged as files and interpreted offline. The changelog shows maintenance following JVM logging changes: G1 work in the 1.31 series, Maven Central publication in 1.33, command-line image/report generation, Java 8 updates, unified logging, Shenandoah, ZGC, and a 2026 update for newer parser cases. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users open or pass GC log files to GCViewer, then inspect charts, pause summaries, heap metrics, parser warnings, and exported summaries. The command-line mode can generate CSV-style reports and optional chart images, making it useful in scripted JVM performance investigations. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren GCViewer is notable because it packages years of JVM log-format drift into one small desktop-and-CLI artifact. It preserves support for vendor-era Java logs while continuing to parse newer OpenJDK unified logging, which is exactly the kind of compatibility surface package maintainers care about. ### Zeitleiste - 2008: Repository metadata says tagtraum development had stopped. - 2011: GitHub records the chewiebug GCViewer repository creation. - 2012: The 1.31 series adds G1 parser work and OS X bundle support. - 2013: GCViewer 1.33 publishes to Maven Central and adds command-line image generation. - 2019: GCViewer 1.36 adds unified logging support, Shenandoah, ZGC, and Go GC logging. - 2026: GCViewer 1.37 is released with parser and UI updates. ### Related projects - The original tagtraum GCViewer is the direct predecessor named by the project. - Sun/Oracle HotSpot, OpenJDK, IBM JVM, HP-UX JVM, and BEA JRockit logs are supported input families. - gchisto is referenced by the changelog as a related simple-GC-log export target. ### Quellen - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
