I'm trying to modify a few of the MBeans that we use in our applications to use XML configuration instead of their current annotations so that I can make use of the descriptions and parameter names etc that can't be changed with the annotations. However, I simply can't get the things to deploy. I've tried all sorts of configurations but there isn't much (any) documentation on this. Can anyone tell me what configurations I need where. The latest content structure I've tried is: ear - jboss-service.xml (contains the MBean definition pointing to META-INF/my-xmbean.xml) -META-INF -- jboss-app.xml -- application.xml -- my-xmbean.xml -lib -- jar1.jar -- jar2.jar -- jar3.jar (this jar contains the MBean code) Any help is much appreciated.
