Perhaps keeping old MBeans, that are now plain POJOs, still in the MBean server with the help of @JMX. "ron.sigal(a)jboss.com" wrote : | 3. Am I correct in understanding that setting "registerDirectly=false" in org.jboss.aop.microcontainer.aspects.jmx.JMX supports hot deployment? | Dunno, check ServiceControllerRegistrationLifecycleCallback for more details. It's a JMX issue / question. "ron.sigal(a)jboss.com" wrote : | 4. JBAS-3926 is "Move remoting transports out of conf/jboss-service.xml to a remoting-beans.xml", but I see that all the *-beans.xml files in AS 5 are named *-jboss-beans.xml. Is the latter form just a convention for *-beans.xml files that come with the AS? | Yes, they were renamed to be more JBoss specific. Since we do file --> metadata matching mostly based on suffix, we would also pick some Spring -beans.xml named files, which were only meant to be used by strict Spring core lib.
