Using HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3

[barrycaceres]

I am trying to follow the instrutions in the 3.0.5
documentation about isolating my EAR.

I created a SAR for the purpose of creating my own
HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3 instances for loading
classes. Each of my EAR files will contain a
jboss-app.xml that will instruct it to use its assigned
repository as opposed to the default one.

HOWEVER, being new to JMX and the jboss-service.xml
files, I am at a loss on how to create the named
repository instances I will use.

Here is the scoop...
I have an exploded SAR:
my-class-loader-repositories.sar
+-- META-INF
+-- jboss-service.xml

The jboss-service.xml is VERY simple... it looks like:

<?xml versio="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE server>






BUT, when JBoss tries to deploy this it warns me that
HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3 does NOT have a public
default constructor. I checked the source code and
sure enough it doesn't. I cannot find another MBean
instance that lacks a public default constructor.

Soo....

Am I suppose to extend HeirarchicalLoaderRepository3?

- or -

Is there an XML example of how to construct this MBean
with a constructor that takes parameters?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. But I am at a loss,
and maybe I just don't understand what the documentation
was saying or left out.

The best answer would include an example jboss-service.xml
that I could use.

Thanks,
Barry

You declare loader repository in your jboss-app.xml. See the DTD for details. You dont need to create your own SAR for this.

Thanks... that did the trick.
The first time I tried this in the jboss-app.xml I
left out the "loaderRepositoryClass" attribute and
JBoss gave me an exception so I guess I was doing
something wrong with a typo. I misread the exception
and assumed I needed to defien the MBean service for
the loader repository before I could refer to it.

I used the example in the DTD and everything worked
just fine.

Thanks for the help.
