Hi!
Situation: software is running on remote computer that i can't access
over the net. This software is failing with errors which source i cannot
pinpoint based on produced logs.
Should there be network access, i would probably debug program remotely.
But alas, i cant. What i hope to do is to:
1. create some "execution flow recorder"/"black box" tptp pack so i can
configure it for recording locally (recorder package/class/method
filters, execution flow/memory/etc recording type and so on)
2. send it to guys running that program. They'll run that recorder,
press 2-3 buttons and tptp will record program execution for some time.
3. after that recorded results would be sent back to me
Of course I can get somewhat similar results by simply adding printlns
after every code line, but using tptp to analyze execution flow is MUCH
more easier and in the end will save me a lot of time.
So, are there any way to create such an eclipse pack that can to work as
a recorder that can be used by someone not familiar with eclipse or even
java?
Thanks in advance.

Alexander, thank you very much! It's exactly what I was looking for!
