I've been tasked with finding a way to grab certain metric information out of WebSphere and WebLogic. It appears that there are two methods to do this: a) drop a java process on the server to hit up the exposed api's, or b) use SNMP to access JMX to get the info remotely

Sorry I hate Java. Micro$oft makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

I just had to rebuild one of our Java products to add some new logging messages. It required using Eclipse.

In Eclipse, the code display window, obviously enough, utilized a copy of the source that was stored in memory. The error and warning list window, though, worked off the source that was saved to the disk. Can you see the small issue with this? Especially since Eclipse never forced a Save All? Ever?

Bah.

Both SNMP and JMX are reasonable. I am more familiar with SNMP but I haven't done anything with WebSphere/WebLogic.

JMX is really just providing a bridge to SNMP so if you can go straight to JMX that may be better.
