The deployment package is a block of code intended to help bootstrap the initial server. It currently understands an XML file describing MBeans and deploys them to the server. It also tries to run an MBean lifecycle, currently based on JBoss's but which should become the one from JSR77.
The intention was to get something quickly that could boot MBeans to allow other initiatives like JNDI, Web, EJB and so on to get going. We may end up throwing it away, or it may become the final MBean kernel, or something in between; it's going to depend on how the discusssions work out. -- Jeremy > -----Original Message----- > From: Jonathan Duty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 2:11 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: deployment package > > > Hi, > I'm part of the team developing the deployment verification engine and > deployment manager.
