While figuring out what's the problem with ServiceSupportMBean, I saw that ServiceControllerContext's target is null if mbean is registered via @JMX on plain MC pojo. So things like this don't get what they expect: | <deployment xmlns="urn:jboss:bean-deployer:2.0"> | | <bean name="XMLLoginConfig" class="org.jboss.demos.models.old.XMLLoginConfig"/> | | <bean name="SecurityConfig" class="org.jboss.demos.models.old.SecurityConfig"> | <property name="defaultLoginConfig"><inject bean="XMLLoginConfig"/></property> | </bean> | | <bean name="SecurityChecker" class="org.jboss.demos.models.old.Checker"> | <property name="loginConfig"><inject bean="jboss.security:service=XMLLoginConfig"/></property> | <property name="securityConfig"><inject bean="jboss.security:service=SecurityConfig"/></property> | </bean> | | </deployment> | Where XMLLoginConfig has | @JMX(name="jboss.security:service=XMLLoginConfig", exposedInterface=XMLLoginConfigMBean.class) | public class XMLLoginConfig extends ServiceMBeanSupport implements XMLLoginConfigMBean | and SecurityConfig | @JMX(name = "jboss.security:service=SecurityConfig", exposedInterface = SecurityConfigMBean.class) | public class SecurityConfig extends ServiceMBeanSupport implements SecurityConfigMBean | And then SecurityChecker was getting nulls injected at Configure: | public class Checker | { | private boolean loginConfigSet; | private boolean securityConfigSet; | | public void setLoginConfig(XMLLoginConfig loginConfig) | { | this.loginConfigSet = true; | } | | public void setSecurityConfig(SecurityConfig securityConfig) | { | this.securityConfigSet = true; | } | | public void start() | { | if (loginConfigSet == false) | throw new IllegalArgumentException("Login config set not called"); | if (securityConfigSet == false) | throw new IllegalArgumentException("Security config set not called"); | } | } | Is this expected? Since looking at the system-jmx code, the ServiceControllerContextActions::getLifecycleOnly doesn't seem to have the code to actually set the existing MC pojo target on the coresponding ServiceControllerContext.
