[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of POJO Server] - Re: @JMX aspect and aop/mc integration

Hmm. Seems AUTO is not totally trivial. It's easy to validate whether a given class is either a DynamicMBean or meets the standard mbean naming rules. But, @JMX has a required exposedInterface attribute. So, we have to validate that the bean is a valid mbean with respect to the given interface. Simple enough for the standard mbean check, but if the bean is a DynamicMBean, that basically means examining all the methods in the exposedInterface and checking the bean's MBeanInfo to confirm that there is a matching attribute or operation. Doable, but involves a fair amount of code and a lot of testing. So, back to the original question: Do we still want to do the AUTO/STRICT/NONE approach? The advantage versus the existing registerDirectly is a small ease of use benefit whereby users don't have to add registerDirectly=true to their annotation.
