Struts & JMX
Hi all,
i have written an app that uses MBean for management.
i need to register them at startup time, so in a way i can use
struts plugins.
but i would be more interested to know how to extend the struts config
file in order to declare the mbean that i use, so that at startup time
all those mbean will be created and registered with the MBean server.
So, i m looking for a way to do teh exact behaviour as plugin, but instead
of declaring
<plug-in className="....">
write something like
<jmxagent classname="...."
<mbean classname="...."
objectName="...."
</mbean>
</jmxagent>
(jmx agent above is needed in order to connect to mbeanserver. so, jmxagent
would be the plugin, and all mbean below will be created and registered with the
agent)
anyone has a clue on how to extend the struts config file?
regards
marco

That would also work. As for specifying what MBeans to load at startup, you
could use the MLET service of JMX and have it load the MBeans. You wouldn't
have to create a custom config then.

Why not take a similar approach to something like ValidatorPlugIn that uses
a
separate config file (or set of config files)? To set up the Validator, you
do
something like the following in struts-config.xml:
<plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames"
value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,..."/>
</plug-in>
The ValidatorPlugIn class exposes a property called "pathnames" that will be
set
automatically by Struts. Seems like this would work for your JMX stuff as
well.
Of course, if you don't need access to anything Struts-specific, you could
use a
ServletContextListener or a separate servlet that's the first one
initialized in
your app.

Yes, take a look at the "className" attribute found on some of the elements
like <forward> and <action> there you can do "some" extension of the config.
Not sure to the extent you are describing.
