Juha, I'd like to extend the JMX metadata generation to search for proper descriptions for MBeans, attributes, methods and parameters from resource files.
If you startup a JBoss that uses Jetty, you will see via the JMX agent that all the jetty MBeans have descriptive text associated with them. This text is obtained from mbean_en.properties files which are searched for on the package/inheritance hierarchy of the MBean. I think it adds significantly to the usability of the JMX interface. It should be a pretty simple addition to the StandardMetaData class. As you appear to be the main author of the JMX stuff, I thought I'd clear it with you before adding this capability. Of course, even with this capability, we would still need other developers to actually write the mbean.properties files - but at least there would be a standard mechanism to document the MBeans. regards -- Greg Wilkins<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GB Phone: +44-(0)7092063462 Mort Bay Consulting Australia and UK.
