First off, thanks David J. for adding the test case. Anyway,
For my own project, I have made a base Dynamic MBean for my own code that all my MBeans are based on. Mainly to avoid the whole MyClass.java must have a MyClassMBean.java type thing that really doesn't work for me given what I use my custom mbeans for. And to allow the subclasses to define their own descriptions of methods/params etc.. I added to my base class start() and stop(), which JBoss sees and does indeed call. I don't (yet) however, define Name, State, StateString attributes that are in ServiceMBean. Just start() and stop() Does JBoss make use of the ServiceMBean attributes? Or are they just for informational purposes? And, are start()/stop() JBoss-isms? Or some kind of standard thing? I couldn't find them in the JMX spec. Would I magically get better managability by making my dynamic base implement ServiceMBean, and make them work like ServiceMBeanSupport? -David _______________________________________________ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development
