> {{DynamicMBeanWrapper.invoke(String, Object[], String[])}} just re-throws any exception as a {{RuntimeException}}.
> This makes it impossible for a client to determine the specific exception which might have been thrown on purpose by the MBean method. See also:
> {code:java|title=JavaDoc of javax.management.DynamicMBean.invoke(String, Object[], String[])}
>      ...
>      * @exception MBeanException  Wraps a <CODE>java.lang.Exception</CODE> thrown by the MBean's invoked method.
>      * @exception ReflectionException  Wraps a <CODE>java.lang.Exception</CODE> thrown while trying to invoke the method
>      */
>     public Object invoke(String actionName, Object params[], String signature[])
>         throws MBeanException, ReflectionException ;
> {code}
> So the correct approach is to handle {{InvocationTargetException}} specifically by wrapping it's *cause* in a {{MBeanException}} and throwing that {{MBeanException}}.
> All other exceptions should be wrapped in a {{ReflectionException}}.
> PS: I filed DELTASPIKE-984 some time ago which led to a slight improvement of the very same {{invoke}} method but obviously my suggestions regarding {{MBeanException}} haven't been considered (I don't know why).
