Mirur is an Eclipse plugin (http://mirur.io/) to visualize your arrays the way
they were meant to be. No more using Arrays.toString()! The existing visual
debugger in Eclipse does a .toString() on any object you select in the
Variables view. For large arrays, this might mean hanging your JVM. Besides
the fact that looking at a long list of values is generally useless to
understand what's happening.
Mirur can plot numerical arrays of any size. View 1-dimensional arrays using a line graph or a bar chart. View 2-dimensional data using a heatmap. Or even just view a histogram of all values in the array.
You can view anything that can be interpreted as a collection of numbers,
including List<Number> or AtomicLong[].
The gh-pages branch contains the website and the update-site folder for
releases. Both the development branch (e.g. master) and gh-pages need to be
checked out alongside each other build. The build assumes gh-pages is checked
out in a folder called mirur-update-site at the same level as the main code.
For example, mirur and mirur-update-site are sibling folders.
cd mirur
mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=X-SNAPSHOT && mvn tycho-versions:set-version -DnewVersion=X.qualifier
git commit -a -m "Version to X" && git tag X
mvn clean install
Now the new build is in ../mirur-update-site/update-site/
cd ../mirur-update-site/update-site/
unzip content.jar && unzip artifacts.jar
# Note this does not work on recent versions of the jarprocessor as of 2023
java -jar ../eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.jarprocessor_1.*.jar \
-processAll -pack -verbose -outputDir plugins plugins/mirur.mirur-ui_*
You can run mirur.mirur-ui as an Eclipse application to test. However, you must add
the following JVM arguments to your debug configuration:
--add-exports java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED
--add-exports java.desktop/sun.awt=ALL-UNNAMED
--add-exports java.desktop/sun.java2d=ALL-UNNAMED
