JBoss3.0 Shutdown order of MBeans

[vad]

Hi,

I deploy some MBean and my code creates, registers
and unregisters some other MBeans. I would like to perform some destroy operations on shutdown, which requires some services (JMS and other rars of my own).

1. How my MBean can be aware of a shutdown? (It does not extends ServiceMBean, I'd like to have no compile time dependencies on JBoss). Maybe by listening unregistering events from the server?

2. How to be the first to be stopped?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I also tried and wrote a service extending MBeanService so that a shutdown calls its stop method, in which I explicitly invoke stop on my JBoss-independant MBean. This doesn't work, because it is already unreistered from server...

How are you deploying the MBean?

If you use a service.xml, you can specify an
MBean dependency. There are examples of this in the
deploy folder.

I deploy my main MBean via an sevice.xml. Then other MBeans are created and registered by code.


I will try to put dependencies, but just to be sure :
if A depends on B, A is started after B, OK; now is it stopped before B?

Yes.
