Client side containter logging

[sebi]

Hi,

Is there a client side log interceptor available and how if so how can I activate it for certain beans only? I am aware of org.jboss.ejb.plugins.LogInterceptor but this one is as far as I understand only used on the server side. I want to log all bean invocations on the client side, including name of the bean, method begin and method return. Does anyone know how to do this and how to activate it in jboss.xml for certain beans only?

Regards,
Sebastian

PS: This is on JBoss 3.0.x

It is trivial.

The config is different between
jboss3.0 (container invoker) and
jboss3.2 (invoker proxy binding)

You write an interceptor like
org.jboss.proxy.SecurityInterceptor and insert it
into the client config of the ejb.

Thanks Adrian, I got my answer already from the mailing list and while doing some trial and error testing.
This is the configuration I use to setup a single EJB using my client log interceptor:

jboss.xml of UserDataReader EJB:


<enterprise-beans>

<ejb-name>UserDataReader</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>UserDataReaderHome</jndi-name>
<configuration-name>Xenon Clustered Stateless SessionBean</configuration-name>

true

</enterprise-beans>

<container-configurations>
<container-configuration extends="Clustered Stateless SessionBean">
<container-name>Xenon Clustered Stateless SessionBean</container-name>
<client-interceptors>


org.jboss.proxy.ejb.StatelessSessionInterceptor

org.jboss.proxy.SecurityInterceptor

org.jboss.proxy.TransactionInterceptor

<!-- This is my log interceptor --> com.sknt.proxy.ejb.LogInterceptor

org.jboss.invocation.InvokerInterceptor

</client-interceptors>
</container-configuration>
</container-configurations>



This works for me running JBoss 3.0.7. Thought it might be helpful for others trying to set it up, so I post it here as well.
