I'm thinking of a new version of the XMBean descriptor that better
allows for externalization of XMBeans. It provides the same type
of metadata view + the ability to specify how to create the mbean
resource with a non-default constructor. This would allow for
creation and registration of a XMBean from its descriptor and is
needed to externalize jmx microkernel elements like the loader
repository, and bootstrap services.
One thing I would like to use the new xml metadata framework for
is the ability to tranform arbitrary xml fragments from external
schemas into objects that would be passed to the persistence manager
and xmbean resource ctors. For example, the following doc has
mypm:data namespace fragment and a xmlbean:data fragment. Will the
new xml metadata framework handle this?
Any comments on such an extension to the current xmbean metadata?
<xmbean>
<mbeaninfo>
<bean>
<name>...</name>
<class>...</class>
<displayName>....</displayName>
<descriptors>
...
<persistence-manager>
<mypm:data>
... some external schema fragment for configuring the pm
...
</mypm:data>
</persistence-manager>
</descriptors>
</bean>
<constructors>
...
</constructors>
<attributes>
...
</attributes>
<operations>
...
</operations>
<notifications>
...
</notifications>
</mbeaninfo>
<resource>
<class>...</class>
<constructor>
<args>
<arg type="...">
<xmlbean:data>
... external xml fragment representing serialized form of
args ...
</xmlbean:data>
</arg>
...
</args>
</constructor>
<object-name>jmx-object-name</object-name>
</resource>
</xmbean>
