|
|
|Hi,
|
|Have you tried using the JCA jbosscx framework with the blackboxDS example
|adapter? I'm not quite sure but I think all the configuration of this
|stuff is not hard coded but works from properties in the pool
|configuration. Right now its a bit unpleasant in that you have to start
|the ds by hand every time you start jboss...but this will probably be fixed
|soon.
nothing prevents you from calling the MBeanServer or the configuration
service for that matter and passing it the relevant <mbean>xml stuff, heck
I bet you could do it from the web.
