Mbean dependencies -> jUDDI

[xtidylan]

Hi,

I'm trying to make an MBean dependent on jUDDI. What the MBean does is provide a cache that stores a wsdl as a string. So instead of looking up an URL stored in jUDDI, I fetch the full wsdl from the cache.

The problem is that my cache has to initialize at startup. What it does now is, when only a part of jUDDI is deployed, it starts, and locks JBoss. When I try to make it dependent of other components, it just keeps waiting till the end of the startup procees, that's when I get an Incomplete Deployment listing, saying the component it's waiting for is "NOTYETINSTALLED".

Can anybody tell me which component to make my cache dependent on? I think I've tried any juddi component in the JMX-console ...

I don't know the MBean to depend on, by why not doing "lazy" cache initialisation, i.e. only fetch those entries upon first access?

Because I'm working on a mechanism that invokes webservices when an ftp upload occurs, which I'm going to add later.

That mechanism is also started during JBoss startup, and depends on the cache. I would have the same problem there.

Then make a directory:

./deploy/deploy.last/

and drop your mbean in there so it gets started last (then presumably, all other services will be started for you)

Thanks! The deploy.last directory worked, I think I have some other issues to work out now.
