to make the picture a bit "complexer" . there is also a dependancy to apache commons-logging if you use the JMX classes. IoServiceBean depends on beanutils which uses commons-logging. i don't know how "hard" this dependancy is to beanutils. if we could remove this dependancy , it would reduce the dependancy list. It would be great that we had 1 logging framework to setup (which could be used with JDK java.util.loggig or log4j) luc luc
