Servlet GBeans for Tomcat
Hi All,
An implementation of servlet GBeans for Tomcat is now available. I
have discussed this with Jeff and would like your comments about
including it in the upcoming release. To give some background, the
current Tomcat integration is at module level. This implementation will
provide finer grained integration, i.e. at the servlet level. This will
provide access to Tomcat servlets. This is a requirement as per
JSR77.3.17.
This implementation also provides access to tomcat performance
statistics via JSR77. Some of these statistics are needed for the admin
console. This is also required by JSR77.6.32
Another feature is a webapp which can be used to access tomcat
internals, i.e. all the Mbeans! It can be added to the applications
directory for now. We can consider merging it with either the debug or
admin console at a later time.
From a user's perspective it will make both web containers have a
similar look and feel.
Thanks
Anita

Yes, The G-1035 has all the required patches. Please try them out
and provide your valuable feedback. These might have become stale. I
will update them soon.

Yes, this is a Tomcat implementation of o.a.g.m.Servlet interface.

AFAIK, the JMXExplorer only deals with Geronimo GBeans and MBeans.
It does not know about Tomcat MBeans. The Tomcat MBeans are mostly
invisible to Geronimo, except for the few exposed by GBeans. This tool
will be useful for people adding new functionality to
TomcatWebContainer or to those who just want to know all the details!

Jetty already provides a fine grained integration.

Anita,
Can you provide some more details on this? Is there a JIRA containing a
patch with the changes? Some more comments/questions in-line below:

There is already a Servlet object extending J2EEManagedObject ....
org.apache.geronimo.management.Servlet. Are you talking about a
different interface or the Tomcat implementation of that interface?

How does webapp differ from the JMXExplorer that is still waiting to be
integrated in GERONIMO-1163?

But your change only includes the tomcat implementation for now ... correct?
