I am making my first steps with JMX or mx4j respectively. I saw that Tomcat 4.1 is able to register MBeans and I saw in the documentation the example descriptor...however, I still dont understand how to proceed.
For testing I only wanted to register a simple MBean (from the mx4j examples) in order to see, if I am able to manage some properties.
I added to the server.xml the listener, giving the reference to my mbeans-descriptors.xml but still I can see the bean...
Now....
1) The className property in the descriptor file is for my MBean, ok...domain to give my MBean a certain namespache, i think,... but what are the group and type properties for?
Finally, I simply want to use my MBean as a sort of "managable" background controller...
2) Is it possible to register a MBean only in the webapplication, without modifications e.g. in the server.xml? It would be nice if at startup of the webcontainer, the MBeans could be launched... Or do I have to have a ContextListener and create an own MBeanServer?
Thanks for any help, example code and suggestions! ;-)
