Adding XML tojboss-service.xml

[per_nyfelt]

I would like to add XML configuration data to a service so figured that wrapping it in a CDATA section would be the way to go e.g.

<attribute name="CollectionConfig">
<![CDATA[<collection compressed="false" name="inventory">
<filer class="org.apache.xindice.core.filer.BTreeFiler" gzip="false"/>"
</collection>]]>
</attribute>

However my collectionConfig attribute gets the value "".

Is there any other way to add xml to the jboss-service.xml file?

If you define your setter as

void setCollectionConfig(org.w3c.dom.Element value);

You can then ignore the <![CDATA[.

The service configurator will pass you the xml.

I have noticed that this works like a charm when starting the service, but you don't seem to be able to pass in an org.w3c.dom.Element from the JMX Console, as it throws an exception and says that there is not a PropertryEditor for org.w3c.dom.Element. I assume this is particular to the JMX Console and needs to be logged as a bug there right?
