Examples:

Following is an example of a report declaration:


<extension point="org.eclipse.mat.report.report">
      <report id="suspects" name="Leak Suspects"
              description="includes leak suspects and a system overview"
              file="META-INF/reports/suspects.xml" />
</extension>

Following is a sample report:


<section name="Leak Suspects">
   <section name="System Overview">
      <param key="html.separate_file" value="true" />
      <template>org.eclipse.mat.api:overview</template>
   </section>
 
   <query name="Leaks">
      <command>leakhunter</command>
   </query>
</section>

In short: sections contain other sections or queries. Queries specify the command to be run. Sections can contain a template element which specifies another report to be included here.

API Information:

See report.xsd for an XML schema for the report definition.
