Jikes RVM currently does not support creating heap dumps.

I implemented a prototype for heap dump functionality for Jikes RVM a long time ago. I never made it public because it had too many limitations (bad design, didn't support all GCs, bad performance, custom format, ...).

Could you elaborate a bit on what you're trying to do?
