Hi,

I have one more doubt if you don't mind. I would like get listed content of an array which will be then printed by traceln in DO part of the byteman script. How can I achieve this?

My intention is to get listed all values of Xid[] array from Narayana project. The definition of array is here: narayana/XARecoveryModule.java at 4.17 · jbosstm/narayana · GitHub

I've tried a rule like this

RULE trace xares transactions
CLASS com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.recovery.arjunacore.XARecoveryModule
METHOD xaRecoveryFirstPass
AT LINE 543
IF true
DO 
  traceln("Xares[" + $1 + "].recover returned: " + $trans.length + " and content: " + java.util.Arrays.asList($trans));
ENDRULE

But this try ends with exception

Rule.ensureTypeCheckedCompiled : error type checking rule trace xares transactions
org.jboss.byteman.rule.exception.TypeException: DollarExpression.typeCheck : invalid expected type java.lang.Object[] for bound parameter $trans file /tmp/jbosstscrashrectests2529661491284256645 line 11

 com.arjuna.ats.internal.arjuna.recovery.PeriodicRecovery.run(PeriodicRecovery.java:375)

Is there some way? Another possible solution that came to my mind is to create my own helper class. But it seems to me a bit heavy weighted and I haven't try it yet.

Thanks for help
