[Springframework-developer] More JMX

[Rob H. <ro...@ca...>]

Everyone,

I finished off the inital stage of work on JMX attribute change
notifications. Added a bunch of tests to verify that these work. May
need to do some refactoring to enable a few more methods to have better
coverage, but for now the code is working and can be tested out.

I don't have much time this week, but I imagine I should have enough
time to get the basics of MBean registration done, so that Spring can
actually register the user's own MBeans. Plus I want to get the basics
of an adapter host in place to host adaptors of different
implementations such as SUN RI and MX4J.

Next week I'll most likely start on either notifications through AOP or
JSR 160 integration. Also want to add JmxTemplate which may be useful
and finish of the JDK proxy. I'll certainly add proxying to the JSR160
support so that remote JMX resources can be accessed using a proxy
instead of the JSR 160 classes.

I also want to look at making BeanFactories available via JMX and it
would be cool if I could add a persistence scheme to the MBeans so that
when an attribute changes in JMX it can be written back to the BeanFactory.
