[jboss-dev] MBeanConfigurator service in varia

[Brian Stansberry]

I found this service buried in the guts of varia:

http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/MbeanConfigurator

Basically listens for JMX notifications of bean registrations and calls 
the legacy ServiceBindingManager mbean. Which, due to my work on 
JBAS-5192 no longer exists; a new version exists that doesn't expose the 
functionality this MBeanConfigurator wants [1].

I can't see any point to this service; AFAICT all it does is use a 
listener to invoke the same operation that the regular mbean service 
deployment logic would have called anyway.

If anyone sees any point to this that I'm missing, please let me know. 
Otherwise I plan to get rid of it. To continue to support this, I'll 
have to repackage the new SBM implementation and restore the legacy SBM 
as an optional service that we don't include in any standard config. 
Waste of a day.
