Heiko, Your JOPR plugin has an RHQ xml file that maps managed attributes to "friendly names". Can this be generated? Each managed attribute/ operation is annotated using a @ManagedAttribute/@ManagedOperation annotation, which has a "description". This is the description that should be used in any GUI console.

I think that most of it could be generated -- at least a "draft" that would need to be manually merged - some stuff just sometimes makes no sense to be exported or needs special treatment in code. Also I think the annotations don't really tell if e.g. a String value (made up only of numbers) should be treated as Trait or Numerical metric (or the other way around) - it makes no sense e.g. to send a version number as numeric metric to Jopr every few seconds - this would be a trait metric.
