Hi there, I've noticed that some methods have a special function in JBoss MBeans. For example, the start() and stop() methods are called automatically by the container in the MBean server startup and shutdown. The problem is that I consulted the JMX 1.2 specification and didn't find any reference to these "special" methods. Can anyone please tell me if they're specific of the JBoss implementation or if I can use this behavior safely with other implementations? Thank you in advance, AP View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4151976#...
