All, I have a slight interest in implementing either a get-and-set or get-and-invoke (or both) in JMXProxyServlet. While it is easy to script get-then-set (or get-then-invoke), I'd like to be able to, with a single URL, get one value and (for example) reset the value to zero (or call something like resetCounters).
The current implementation of JMXProxyServlet's doGet method is something like this: String qry=request.getParameter("get"); if(qry != null) { // do the "get" return; } I was thinking that I could just let the "if" case fall-through after the (partial) response has been written: the client would then receive *two* "responses" in the same HTTP response: one from the "get" and another from the "invoke". Presumably, the client will understand the nature of the two responses and will be able to tell which is which. Are there any objections or alternatives anyone would like to raise? If necessary, I certainly *can* script these two operations but I thought it might be a nice feature to have. On a related note, I was thinking it might be nice to allow multiple "get" (or any other) operations in a single request, but there are pairs of request parameters (get + att + key) that must be matched-up for certain requests and so that is problematic (unless we allow "?get0=x&att0=y&key=z&get1=x1&att1=..."). If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be happy to implement something like that. Thanks, -chris
