Re: [jboss-as7-dev] Request for review: AS7 management additions
Hi Thomas,
If you look at the management console (and jboss-admin.sh) you'll see that it provides
an interface to control the static information that is configured in
standalone.xml/domain.xml as well as a way to interact with the dynamic information in the
runtime.
When I started looking at the management stuff in OSGi I noticed that the way the static
configuration is currently provided is quite different from other subsystems, and it's
read-only: it doesn't support changes through the console.
So this piece has a couple of purposes:
* Make the OSGi-Management API conformant with the other Management API's
* Make the OSGi configuration editable throught the console
* For me to learn this stuff :)
Yes, I agree, the bundle level runtime API (start/stop) etc should and will also be done.
Cheers,
David

What is the ultimate purpose of this? AFAICS this would add a module
to
the osgi subsystem description, which could on subsystem startup
provide
packages that are available on the osgi system classloader. These
packages would however only be visible if corresponding export
statements are defined too.
From an osgi subsystem management perspective, I'd think it is more
useful to provide management functionality like start/stop of a
bundle.
Another obvious candidate would be the management of ConfigAdmin
properties.
