Problem querying MBeans

[jammann]

Hi

I have implemented a couple of MBeans in a JBoss 4.0.1sp1 Microkernel. Together, they basically implement a simple "SOAP-over-MQ-Series" server.

Everything works from the functional point of view, but when I want to monitor my MBeans (e.g. with twiddle or MC4J), I get errors on many of them. I can't even query the MBeanInfo.

I tracked this down to be those of my MBeans, that have some attribute that is not a simple value, but an XML element. Sure enough, if I add such an attribute to an MBean that is working, it also shows the error.

In, twiddle.sh, what I get is:

Could anybody give me a hint what is wrong with my MBeans?

Change twiddle.bat as follows:

...
rem Setup JBoss sepecific properties
set JBOSS_HOME=%DIRNAME%\..
set JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS=%JBOSS_HOME%\lib\endorsed
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Djboss.boot.loader.name=%PROGNAME%

%JAVA% %JAVA_OPTS% "-Djava.endorsed.dirs=%JBOSS_ENDORSED_DIRS%" -classpath "%JBOSS_CLASSPATH%" %MAIN_CLASS% %ARGS%

:END

The fix was discussed here:

Thanks everybody, I'll check this is asap.
