Homework - Importing sun package in java

Hello there,
I am working on some multitasking sort of application.
I need to keep log of all java processes being running currently. For that purpose I found that I need to import sun.jvmstat.monitor.*;
but I am getting error on this import i.e.
import sun.jvmstat cannot be resolved

I am extremely new to java so i dont know much about jre paths etc. please provide an easy step by step solution to this problem. I am using eclipse IDE.

ps. I also tried to follow a solution on stackoverflow website
on how-do-i-include-jvmstat
this directed me to download j2eesdk-1_4_03-windows
I downloaded and installed this but couldnt help me in my problem

I would appreciate your help.
Regards

Where did you see the classes described that are in the package you are having problems with?

sorry i didnt get your question..
I am having error on import sun.jvmstat

Why do you want to do that?

I want to run this code:

import java.util.*;
import sun.jvmstat.monitor.*;
public class ListJavaProcess {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

/* Checking for local Host, one can do for remote machine as well */

MonitoredHost local = MonitoredHost.getMonitoredHost("localhost");

/* Take all active VM's on Host, LocalHost here */

Set vmlist = new HashSet(local.activeVms());

for (Object id : vmlist) {

/* 1234 - Specifies the Java Virtual Machine identified by lvmid 1234 on an unnamed host.

This string is transformed into the absolute form //1234, which must be resolved against

a HostIdentifier. */

MonitoredVm vm = local.getMonitoredVm(new VmIdentifier("//" + id));

/* take care of class file and jar file both */

String processname = MonitoredVmUtil.mainClass(vm, true);

System.out.println(id + " ------> " + processname);

}

}
}

Where did you get the code? Did the author of that code say where the classes are that are needed?

Did you google on the package name to see details on the history of that package?
It's at least 6 years old and out of date.

Actualy I searched on how to keep the log of all java process being running and I also need to display them. So, all the links which I got includes this same package. i.e.
Import sun.jvmstat

now what to use instead?

It may not be possible. Did you Ask Google about the package?

yes i did. would you give me some solution now???

I have no solution.

OK

I am not sure if it is possible to log all JVM processes, but for displaying and monitoring them, I have found this from google:
JConsole

JConsole displays a graphical UI to present various aspects of a particular or some processes or all JVM processes currently running. Try it out and see if it satisfies what you are trying to achieve.

You need to write your own codes only if it still can't fulfill your needs.
