Peter,
Have a look at jakarta-avalon-cornerstone/apps/simpleserver/src/java/org/apache/avalon/simpleserver/SimpleServer.xinfoI have changed that. I've also poked through all the phoenix code and it is quite nice.
It uses the deprecated construct. Run it through phoenix and it will tell you the proper construct to use. I believe it involves renaming <management/> element to <management-access-point/> or similar.
The class being exported 'SimpleService' has no methods at all. Thus is not manageable. I've looked for a tester that would use the block via its exported API, but cannot find one.
As mentioned I am 'example orientated' WRT learning, so can't understand it until I see it in use. Is it there is no use of this specific examplet, and that the descriptive prose I'll be writing will be along the lines of "management of blocks over jmx is possible via this mechanism".
Lastly on a positive note. I think I could use it the same mechanism for publishing blocks via AltRMI. I could clone org.apache.avalon.phoenix.components.manager.DefaultManager (or use abstract/final separation) to make a version of phoenix that would publish in that way instead of JMX.
