Well referring to the Manuel' message, unifying the implementations
would be a great move.

Yes that's it.
You can have two implementing ways :
- UPnPdev <-> MBean <-> JMXConsole
In this case each UPnP device declares an MBean which represent
himself. So the JMXConsole can be considered as a controlPoint
I guess this approach is more general and so compatible also with Jmood,
isn't?
Here I need some hint on JMX architecture because I was wondering
whether a DynamicMbean is the right way for probing the UPnP devices.
Thinking to the data exchanged, my doubt are related to the mapping of
UPnP\Java data type. Would a generic JMX console be able to build
automatically the right interface to interact with the probed UPnP device?
- UPnPdev <-> ControlPoint <-> MBean <-> JMXconsole
In this case the control point declares a MBean that enable the
JMXConsole to manage it.
I have done the second one in a simple example.
Great, I'm curious to know how you have instrumented the Generic Control
Point :-). Do you have also implemented the GUI for the console?
Why not commit it in your sandbox ;-)
There would be also another interesting implementation for remote
management, I don't know if JMX can come into help.
I'm thinking a scenario where a Control Center installs a blinking light
alarm, a physical UPnP device, on its local network and connects the
Alarm device to some remote device of one or more managed gateways.
There are also other interesting use cases ...
Thus the path should be:
Remote UPnPdev <-> MBean <-> JMX <-> UPnPDev <-> UPnPDriver <-> Local
UPnP Alarm
Of corse we could choose other protocols in order to connect the two
UPnP networks, but you are more experienced than me to tell if such
chain is a convenient approach.

I'm not sure to understand your question. Are you asking if I want to
create a new GUI (Tab) for your console acting as a Generic Control
Point, that is similar to GUI of the bundle we have developed for
testing UPnP?
or the question is about bridging two local UPnP networks ?
