/**
 * A Java virtual machine.
 *
 * <p> A <code>VirtualMachine</code> represents a Java virtual machine to which this
 * Java virtual machine has attached. The Java virtual machine to which it is
 * attached is sometimes called the <i>target virtual machine</i>, or <i>target VM</i>.
 * An application (typically a tool such as a managemet console or profiler) uses a
 * VirtualMachine to load an agent into the target VM. For example, a profiler tool
 * written in the Java Language might attach to a running application and load its
 * profiler agent to profile the running application. </p>
 *
 * <p> A VirtualMachine is obtained by invoking the {@link #attach(String) attach} method
 * with an identifier that identifies the target virtual machine. The identifier is
 * implementation-dependent but is typically the process identifier (or pid) in
 * environments where each Java virtual machine runs in its own operating system process.
 * Alternatively, a <code>VirtualMachine</code> instance is obtained by invoking the
 * {@link #attach(VirtualMachineDescriptor) attach} method with a {@link
 * com.sun.tools.attach.VirtualMachineDescriptor VirtualMachineDescriptor} obtained
 * from the list of virtual machine descriptors returned by the {@link #list list} method.
 * Once a reference to a virtual machine is obtained, the {@link #loadAgent loadAgent},
 * {@link #loadAgentLibrary loadAgentLibrary}, and {@link #loadAgentPath loadAgentPath}
 * methods are used to load agents into target virtual machine. The {@link
 * #loadAgent loadAgent} method is used to load agents that are written in the Java
 * Language and deployed in a {@link java.util.jar.JarFile JAR file}. (See
 * {@link java.lang.instrument} for a detailed description on how these agents
 * are loaded and started). The {@link #loadAgentLibrary loadAgentLibrary} and
 * {@link #loadAgentPath loadAgentPath} methods are used to load agents that
 * are deployed in a dynamic library and make use of the <a
 * href="../../../../../../../../technotes/guides/jvmti/index.html">JVM Tools
 * Interface</a>. </p>
 *
 * <p> In addition to loading agents a VirtualMachine provides read access to the
 * {@link java.lang.System#getProperties() system properties} in the target VM.
 * This can be useful in some environments where properties such as
 * <code>java.home</code>, <code>os.name</code>, or <code>os.arch</code> are
 * used to construct the path to agent that will be loaded into the target VM.
 *
 * <p> The following example demonstrates how VirtualMachine may be used:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 *
 *      // attach to target VM
 *      VirtualMachine vm = VirtualMachine.attach("2177");
 *
 *      // get system properties in target VM
 *      Properties props = vm.getSystemProperties();
 *
 *      // construct path to management agent
 *      String home = props.getProperty("java.home");
 *      String agent = home + File.separator + "lib" + File.separator
 *          + "management-agent.jar";
 *
 *      // load agent into target VM
 *      vm.loadAgent(agent, "com.sun.management.jmxremote.port=5000");
 *
 *      // detach
 *      vm.detach();
 *
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> In this example we attach to a Java virtual machine that is identified by
 * the process identifier <code>2177</code>. The system properties from the target
 * VM are then used to construct the path to a <i>management agent</i> which is then
 * loaded into the target VM. Once loaded the client detaches from the target VM. </p>
 *
 * <p> A VirtualMachine is safe for use by multiple concurrent threads. </p>
