The following link describes using JMX with Tomcat. Step #4 talks about the
mbeans-descriptors.xml file, but it seems to make no difference when using
it. If I don't include elements in that file that I do in MBean interface,
it still works in JConsole properly - and the descriptions entered don't
seem to show up in JConsole either.

http://oss.wxnet.org/mbeans.html

Also, things like the "writeable" property and the "type" property that are
specified in this file could easily be determined from the MBean interface,
from return types, whether a getter has a corresponding setter, etc. Then
what is the use of this file if updating it to keep in sync with the MBean
interface makes no difference? Is it necessary to begin with?

Thanks.
