ON-LINE-HELP
Race Catcher Thread Analyzer catches and explains every Race Condition experienced by your multi-threaded Java application automatically.
It consists of two major components, Race Catcher Agent that is run in your JVM along with your target Java application, and the Race Catcher User Interface, which can be started as a separate application.
You can run your application as you normally would, without any source code modification. When your application is started with Race Catcher agent it becomes SUM-Enabled. To start an application with Race Catcher agent use "jta" instead of "java" on the command line. SUM-Enabled applications can be seen and understood within the SUM UI, whether or not they contain any thread contentions.
Below is a view of SUM UI.
