So people tend to write As IsA, you're right, Model extends Dynamic. The use is very different - with model you create a MBean and (based on a config file) specify the fields and methods. With Dynamic - you have to create a class extending the base class and implement the methods. That can be done using introspection ( instead of the config file ) or you can use whatever other mechanism - like sending requests over the wire and act as a proxy for some non-java code. The implementation details are not that important - both are reasonably simple and clean, I don't see a problem with using multiple methods to get the MBean registered. After all, that's what matters - to have all aspects managed by mbeans. Costin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
