[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-6950) Export remoting-JMX address via JVM instrumentation buffer

[James Livingston (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6950?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12768661#comment-12768661 ] 

James Livingston commented on AS7-6950:
---------------------------------------

https://github.com/doctau/jboss-as/tree/AS7-6950 contains a PoC implementation of this. Currently it hard-codes localhost:9999 as the address, because DelegatingRemotingConnectorServer.getAddress() always returns null. Using this, you can use the local process list in JConsole to connect to JBoss without manually entering the address.

I'm not sure what the correct way of the JMX subsystem finding out the address it operates on, and the from the comments method author didn't know at the time either.

> Currently to connect to the AS with JConsole you need to manually enter the service:jmx:remoting-jmx:// address. When the local process connection is used, it retrieves the connection address via the Sun JDK management instrumentation buffer.
> The exported address can be set via sun.management.ConnectorAddressLink.export(), and doing that would allow JConsole to connect without typing in the address (although still obviously require the jars to be on the classpath).
