MXINFO question

[Ulrich Mayring]

Hello,

I've just created my first MXINFO file, but the descriptions I put in don't appear in the management console of MX4J. Apparently the file wasn't evaluated, but I don't see any error message in phoenix.log. Here are the files I have:

MyApp - an empty interface class (no methods or constructors)
MyAppMBean - contains some interface definitions for JMX
MyAppImpl - contains the implementations of the MyAppMBean interfaces and implements MyApp
MyAppMBean.mxinfo - my MXINFO file

Here's my MyAppMBean file:

public interface MyAppMBean {
public String deleteObject(String id);
public String getStatus();
public void resume();
public void pause();
}

Here's what I have in the MXINFO file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE mxinfo PUBLIC "-//PHOENIX/Mx Info DTD Version 1.0//EN"

"http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/dtds/phoenix/mxinfo_1_0.dtd";>

<mxinfo>

<topic name="MyApp">

<!-- attributes -->
<attribute
name="status"
description="Status of MyApp"
isWriteable="no"
type="java.lang.String"
/>

<!-- operations -->
<operation
name="deleteObject"
description="Deletes an Object"
type="java.lang.String"
>
<param
name="instance"
description="ID of Object to be deleted"
type="java.lang.String"
/>
</operation>

</topic>

</mxinfo>

I was expecting that the descriptions I put in should appear in the MX4J-generated MBean web page, but they don't. I can think of two possible mistakes I made (although the docs don't forbid them):

1. I didn't define all the methods from the interfaces in MyAppMBean in the MXINFO file, because I only need descriptions for a few.

2. I should have called the MXINFO file MyAppImpl.mxinfo

Any ideas on how to debug this?

Ulrich
