jmap is actually a java program. jmap executable is simple launcher just 
like a java launcher.
It launches java program and runs JMap.class from sa-jdi.jar or runs 
attach on demand
code and attaches to the running jvm.  SA based jmap can be run like this

java -classpath <jdkhome>/sa-jdi.jar  sun.jvm.hotspot.tools.JMap  
-finalizerinfo <pid>
