How to work with MBeans?
Hi,
I was about to have sent the following message, but came across the tool
mentioned already on the list - JMX Browser from
http://www.ejtools.org/applications/jmx.browser/. That's exactly what I
was looking for.
Would you recommend to use or forget about it and looking for an
alternative?
============
How are mbeans deployed in Geronimo tested? There's a web app - JMX
console - but it doesn't allow to invoke operations. As Geronimo comes
with several mbeans it must be a way to test them out without coding -
something like a JMX Browser.

Invocation support is next on the list of things to do for the management
console. Unfortunately, I'm too busy this week to work on it, but I imagine
we'll be able to support invocations in the next several weeks.
Cheers,

Very helpful stuff Jacek.
I would definitely think it is worth writing a Wiki page for this
procedure.

I should've been sent it earlier, at least right after Dianny Damour's
email where he descibed the problem with CL.
So to work with MBeans of Geronimo and EJTools JMX Browser do as follows:
1/ Copy MX4J libraries to <EJTools.JMX.Browser.HOME>/lib (if offline you
should have them in Maven's repository since Geronimo requires them to
build successfully)
2/ Build Geronimo (maven (re)build)
3/ Uncomment the following lines in
target/geronimo-DEV/etc/boot-service.xml:
<!-- RMI adaptor to support MX4J -->
<mbean code="mx4j.tools.naming.NamingService"
name="Naming:type=rmiregistry">
</mbean>
<mbean code="mx4j.adaptor.rmi.jrmp.JRMPAdaptor"
name="Adaptor:protocol=JRMP">
<attribute name="JNDIName">jrmp</attribute>
</mbean>
4/ Modify maven.xml file so that run:main goal (<classpath> element of
<goal name="run:main">) contains the line:
<pathelement path="${run.dir}/lib/geronimo-core-rmiclassloaderspi.jar"/>
5/ Run Geronimo
6/ Run EJTools JMX Browser (run.bat or run.sh in bin directory of the tool)
7/ In the JMX Browser, select File->New menu and choose MX4J 1.1.1
(JRMP) in "Choose a connection profile" pop-up window.
8/ New window shows up where it's possible to tweak JMX Server
properties. Don't change anything (but "Connection:" field where you may
enter "Apache Geronimo").
Press "Connect to the JMX Server"
9/ Voila, you're in!
Do you think I should create a Wiki page with the procedure? Perhaps,
"How to work with MBeans" would be a right name, shouldn't it?

That's right...uses RMI over JRMP, look at etc\jndi.properties if MC4J
asks about JNDI stuff.
Look at Dain's email in reply to my question of you get CL issues.

This was a while ago, but to enable MC4J uncomment the two entries in
boot-service.xml after "RMI adaptor to support MX4J" then configure MC4J
as per its documentation (like for JBo$$)
I am not sure if this still works as there have been several changes to
classpath handling since then which may mean the RMI adapter is not
available.
Sorry can't help more (I'm in a black hole).

Any hints on how to set up the tools so that they will be able to
connect to Geronimo? I keep trying, but don't think I finish soon with
no others' help.

There is also MC4J.
I do any testing from the unit test suite by invoking them directly.
