Thanks. The use of the annotation is what I'd read and forgotten. I thought the "inject the MBeanServer via a property" approach seemed too hacky!

For clustering the part I'm going to want to be sure works well is overriding the @JMX name attribute via XML. Most clustering beans can be deployed multiple times with different partitions, with the partition name as an attribute of the ObjectName. And of course there can be multiple JBC instances in the server. Manik, one thing this implies is a compile-time dependency in JBC on the microcontainer jars. I think that was an inevitability anyway. We could avoid this by having the JMX integration in the AS cluster module or the fledgling cluster project, but that seems ugly. anonymous wrote : | In the interim if you run into issues, I would look at creating a CacheJmxWrapper that exposes the mbean interface and delegates to the pojo cache to make sure jmx is fully separated out of the core. | I did that this morning; even named the class "CacheJmxWrapper". Pending sorting out use of @JMX, it knows how to register itself w/ JMX if the MC injects an MBeanServer, a la AspectManager. That may be how I leave it for the next week or so while I focus on getting all the AS clustering code working with the new JBC 2.0 API. This class will probably also be the basis for integrating JBC 2.0 in the old JMX Microkernel. There's still legacy code in TreeCache that let's TreeCache register itself w/ JMX; I'll remove that tomorrow once others get a chance to read this thread and express any opinions.
