·Hot Swapping·

Our work is fun, but we don't want to waste our time waiting when our latest changes will be deployed on application server!

You can reload classes changed during debugging without need to restart the entire application using the HotSwap mechanism Command+Shift+F9 in IntelliJ IDEA.

jvm_hotswap_ok

BUT! At the moment due to original limitations of Java SDK the HotSwapping is possible ONLY if the method body is altered.

In all other cases (like changing method or class signature), the class reload is impossible and the corresponding error message appears.

jvm_hotswap_fail

Solution

We need to use special java agent together with our JVM to enhance ability of reloading of changed classes. For example:

  1. JRebel (too expensive $550 :fearful: per year per user)
  2. Spring-Loaded (cannot work properly with java 8 and crash JVM :dizzy_face:, the Spring team propagates the "Restart application on file-change"-approach of spring-boot-devtools for Spring Boot)
  3. FakeReplace (No JDK10+ support yet)
  4. RelProxy (Dead? No support for JDK8+)
  5. DCEVM (free-opensource-reallyhot :grinning:)

We will choose: DCEVM + Hotswap Agent :thumbsup:

DCEVM Installation

steps:

1. Download latest release of DCEVM Java patch and launch the installer with sudo(e.g. sudo java -jar DCEVM-light-8u51-installer.jar). Currently you need to select correct installer for Java 8.

2. Select java installation directory on your disc and press "Install DCEVM as altjvm" button. JDK version 1.8.0_45 is recommended. download here

DCEVM

3. Download latest release of Hotswap agent jar, unpack hotswap-agent.jar and put it anywhere on your disc. For example: C:javahotswap-agent.jar

4. Installation is done!

4. Be sure that you have "Reload classes after compilation: Always" ON in IntelliJ IDEA in HotSwap section in your IDEA preferences.

5. To re-deploying changed classes in IDEA press keys combination (: Command+Shift+F9/ ⊞: Ctrl+Shift+F9) to compile the current file

:information_source: Instead of compiling the classes manually you can use the Save Action plug-in, which can trigger the compilation automatically and thus enabling "hotswap on save".

Happy:heart: Hot Swapping!

  1. change method name & then press (: Command+Shift+F9/ ⊞: Ctrl+Shift+F9)
  2. add new method & then press (: Command+Shift+F9/ ⊞: Ctrl+Shift+F9)
