[jboss-user] [Microcontainer] - Re: migrating from ServiceMBeanSupport

[jhalliday]

The JMX annotation seems a good approach at first, but when I replace the old mbean

  | <mbean code="com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.jta.TransactionManagerService"
  |       name="jboss:service=TransactionManager">
  |       <attribute name="TransactionTimeout">300</attribute>
  |       <attribute name="ObjectStoreDir">${jboss.server.data.dir}/tx-object-store</attribute>
  | </mbean>
  | 
with the new annotated bean

  | <bean name="TransactionManager" class="com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.jta.TransactionManagerService">
  |         <annotation>@org.jboss.aop.microcontainer.aspects.jmx.JMX(name="jboss:service=TransactionManager", exposedInterface=com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.jta.TransactionManagerServiceMBean.class, registerDirectly=true)</annotation>
  | 
  |         <property name="TransactionTimeout">300</property>
  |         <property name="ObjectStoreDir">${jboss.server.data.dir}/tx-object-store</property>
  | </bean>
  | 
then the dependent mbeans e.g.

  |    <mbean code="org.jboss.invocation.unified.server.UnifiedInvoker"
  |       name="jboss:service=invoker,type=unified">
  |       <depends>jboss:service=TransactionManager</depends>
  |       <depends>jboss.remoting:service=Connector,transport=socket</depends>
  |    </mbean>
fail to find the service they depend on:

  | ...
  | 14:01:46,883 INFO  [JMXKernel] Legacy JMX core initialized
  | 14:01:59,184 INFO  [WebService] Using RMI server codebase: http://127.0.0.1:8083/

  |  -> jboss:service=TransactionManager{Create:** NOT FOUND **}
  | ...
  | *** CONTEXTS IN ERROR: Name -> Error

  | 

Perhaps the annotation is being processed at a later stage of the lifecycle so it's not yet present when the mbean dependencies go to look for it?

Anyhow, it seems there are issues with interop between the old mbean style and the new bean style. My options at this point seem equally unpalatable: either link the transactions code again some new AS library (lots of work with no apparent advantage over the existing situation of linking against ServiceMBeanSupport) or convert everything that depends on the transaction manager from mbeans to beans also, transitively.  I vote for option 3: do nothing. ServiceMBeanSupport works ok, why bother with this new MC stuff?
