Service interface vs ServiceMBean interface. Which to use ?

[fmarchioni]

Hello,
I'm interested to know more about 2 options you have when
you deploy an mbean on jboss.

Can anybody point out what is the scenario when you use:

1)your MBean implements the org.jboss.util.Service interface.
2) you bean implements ServiceMBean interface / ServiceMBeanSupport

Thanks a lot
Francesco
