Description Tomas Hurka 2015-02-20 09:52:56 UTC 
Memory sampling does not work in JDK 9, since it does not contain tools.jar. Corresponding classes must be loaded by system classloader, which sees also classes, which were part of tools.jar in JDK 8 and older.
Comment 1 Tomas Hurka 2015-02-20 09:54:58 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1) start profiled application on JDK 9
2) try to use memory sampling feature
Comment 2 Tomas Hurka 2015-02-20 12:54:16 UTC 
Fixed in profiler-main
