XMBean with String[] attribute

[ejain]

If I try to deploy an XMBean that contains a String[] attribute ("Services"), I get a "javax.management.IntrospectionException: no getter method found for attribute: Services"

The get/set methods are properly implemented:

[pre]public String[] getServices()
{
return services;
}

public void setServices(String[] services)
{
this.services = services;
}[/pre]

...and the XML descriptor looks fine, too:

[pre]
Registered services.
Services
java.lang.String[]
[/pre]

The MBean works fine, otherwise. Any ideas what's going wrong here?

You have to the jvm name for String[]

[Ljava.lang.String;

See the javadocs for Class.getName();

Thanks, but the problem is still there. Only if I change the code and descriptor to use a java.lang.String instead of an array does everything works fine.

Are there any examples of MBeans provided by JBoss that have array type attributes? Couldn't find any...

This is one from the testsuite


<![CDATA[Describe getPhoneNumbers method here.
read-write attribute]]>
PhoneNumbers
[Ljava.lang.String;

Thanks a lot, I had missed the semicolon... Should probably switch to the version of XDoclet provided with JBoss, anyways...

Related question: Is there any way to set String[] attributes from a jboss-service.xml (property editor)?

This was fixed in jboss3.2 very recently
