Yes to both.

This code in the Filter's init() method:
import javax.management.MBeanServer;
...
MBeanServer server = getServer();
server.registerMBean(_stats, new
ObjectName("Example:RequestStats=RequestStats,name=" + filterName;));

No, I'm using JMX API.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough initially: every single thing is working
correctly: the Filter runs, registers the bean, and collects data
properly. I can see everything in jconsole, etc. The only thing that
is missing is all the descriptions for the operations and attributes
that I have put into my mbeans-descriptors.xml file. All the
descriptions say "(Operation|Attribute) exposed for management".

Yes, this is the conclusion I'm coming to. I've never run Tomcat under
the Eclipse debugger before. Time to learn.

+1
I'm writing an example MBean for ApacheCon and I didn't want to
include things that weren't absolutely necessary.

I do not in fact have a second copy of that JAR in my web application.
I'm using Tomcat's "examples" web application with only a modified
web.xml to deploy the Filter. The Filter class itself is packaged in
the JAR along with the MBean and exists only in CATALINA_BASE/lib.

I could swear that it was working when I started with my initial
implementation.
