This is not so much a bug as a feature ;) ie This is not expected to work in Phoenix as Pheonix does not directly export an object but has to export an object via a proxy (partially to setup thread context and partially to make sure the corrent MX interface is exported). However you can do the equivelent sort of thing in phoenix by adding xdoclet tags to source file and processing the source files to produce .mxinfo files. These .mxinfo files will work on all MBean servers and you can see the documentation at http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/phoenix/mx/index.html If you have any questions feel free to ask. -- Cheers, Peter Donald *------------------------------------------------* | The student who is never required to do what | | he cannot do never does what he can do. | | - John Stuart Mill | *------------------------------------------------* -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:avalon-phoenix-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:avalon-phoenix-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
