JEP 528 proposes extending the jcmd diagnostic tool to work with core dumps from crashed JVMs, enabling post-mortem analysis without a running JVM. Currently jcmd can retrieve heap dumps, thread dumps, GC insights, and virtual thread scheduler statistics only from live JVMs. Once adopted, this JEP would allow the same diagnostic information to be extracted from crash core dumps, simplifying post-mortem debugging workflows.
