I hate when I accidentally hit ctrl-enter... I figured that what I was asking for would require work no matter where I went to unless there was some magic software that I never heard about or that cost an obnoxious amount of money so helping out with the project, assuming I get management buy-in to do the project in the first place, is within my scope.
I have never worked w/ JMX before but the O'Reilly book is sitting on my bookshelf making me feel smarter for having bought it. I might could actually read it and learn something... My personal learning style is that I work best w/ a combination of docs containing descriptions and examples and then trying my own code and figuring out where I screwed up by going back to the example. I know from follow-up emails that the Wiki is under construction so I don't feel too bad about saying that the docs just aren't there. Is there a collection of sample applications (with good comments oh please oh please) that run within Avalon? Did I read correctly that Tomcat uses Avalon? Still in research mode but willing to learn and if I get buy-in willing to code. rjsjr > > Do any of the containers currently provide > > those sorts of services?
