Okay, I think I see what you mean, for example in the JB4
TransactionManagerService.java there's a managed attribute set up
as follows:
/**
* mbean get-set pair for field xidFactory
* Get the value of xidFactory
* @return value of xidFactory
*
* @jmx.managed-attribute description="The factory object that
supplies xids. This must implement the XidFactory interface"
* access="read-write"
* value="jboss.tm:service=XidFactory"
*/
public ObjectName getXidFactory()
{
return xidFactory;
}
I see the value is an ObjectName as you indicated. I had seen that
when I looked through the .xdt files for the JBoss JMX stuff, but
didn't understand what they were used for.
So, just to be clear, you're using the 'value' parameter here to set
the value of an attribute to an ObjectName and you're assuming that
action means that you want to set up an explicit dependency between
two mbeans.
I guess I'm just thinking that if you have a feature built into JBoss
that can be utilized with some kind of XDoclet tag, why wouldn't you
put it in to promote the use of that feature? Are you not using it
because you don't philosphically believe it's a good idea? Or just
because you prefer to make explicit ObjectName references?
I'm probably going to toy with how to modify the XDoclet template to
add the Class level tag for anonymous depends as an excercise, just
wanted to know a little more.
Thanks for the response. Cheers.
