Removing your JHAT [JEP 241]

The Java Heap Analysis Tool (JHAT) is used to parse Java heap dump files. The syntax for this heap dump file parsing tool is as follows:

jhat 
     [-stack <bool>] 
     [-refs <bool>] 
     [-port <port>] 
     [-baseline <file>] 
     [-debug <int>] 
     [-version] 
     [-h|-help] 
     <file>

Here is a quick look at the options associated with the JHAT command:
