what is purpose of MxHttpAdapter

[lucio piccoli]

hi all,

what is the purpose of the org.rzo.ajax4jmx.httpadapter.MxHttpAdapter.MxHttpAdapter? It does not seem to be invoked in the deployment to tomcat.

My interest is in the binding of the tomcat security realm to the Ajax4JMX webapp. I cant seem to see how the code is called.

any hepl is most appreciated.

hi,

MxHttpAdapter is similar to:
http://mx4j.sourceforge.net/docs/ch05.html
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-7608/6mdjqgnhb?a=view
http://www.servletsuite.com/jmx/jmx-html.htm

it is implementd using embedded tomcat:
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2002/04/03/tomcat.html

MxHttpAdpater already includes a simple tomcat realm.
usage is simple:

        MxHttpAdapter x = new MxHttpAdapter();
                x.setUser("admin");
                x.setPassword("admin");
                x.setPort(8080);
        x.init();
        x.start();
