I am building a custom user system which extends that which tomcat 4.1.12 did - basically an extended version of the UserDatabaseRealm and UserDatabase - to meet a companies specific security needs. As such, any classes I write for this go into the server/lib directory. I noticed I could disable JMX support and everything worked fine... - but since this is the first I have heard about JMX, I would like to know more about what JMX's role is in J2EE systems. Funny how new features in Tomcat somehow get me introduced to new java libraries I never knew about...
I made the decision to do this for many reasons - but primarily because I like the new administration features of 4.1.12, and (except for encoding issues in realms), I like the catalina interface. I have heard a lot of good things about JBoss - mostly integrating various J2EE components - however I am not yet familiar enough with ejb's, and jms to use them in a production environment. Eventually, when I get out of school, I will probably delve into it full time - but until then I need to just figure out how to best provide good service to the companies that supply my fledling family their bread and butter. :) Randy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shapira, Yoav" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 6:40 AM Subject: RE: MBeans? Howdy, What kind of bean what you like to add so that tomcat knows about it? In the (current) tomcat world, there are two kind of MBeans: its own and yours. Yours are under your webapp, visible only to you, and tomcat doesn't want to have anything to do with them. Its own MBeans are visible only to it, and you shouldn't have anything to do with them. This might change in the future. JBoss supports a nice dynamic MBean model. It may be more suitable for your task. Which goes back to the original question, what exactly are you trying to do?
