Using JMX as an OSGI alternative

jspence96 May 26, 2004 2:16 PM

I want to use MBeans as an alternative to the OSGI bundle mechanism and I am wondering if JBoss supports this kind of thing. I want to write several MBeans as service modules or bundles and want to be able to install, uninstall, start and stop these module or bundles dynamically. I know with JBoss MBeans can be started and stopped but does JBoss support the idea os installing and uninstalling an MBean dynamically?

Great but how can it be done programatically? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Package your MBeans as a SAR archive and use the MainDeployer's deploy operation to deploy the SAR.
