XMBean Default values now shown in JMX

[bossy]

Hello,
I've got an XMBean for which attributes I provided default values in the descriptor xml file.
This is my jboss-service.xml

<server>
 <mbean code="com.xxx.jmx.ConfigXMBean" name="BBB:service=Config"
 xmbean-dd="META-INF/config-xmbean.xml">
 </mbean>
</server>

In config-xmbean.xml I have:

...
<mbean>
 <description>The JNDIMap XMBean </description>

 <descriptors>
 <persistence persistPolicy="OnUpdate"
 persistPeriod="10"
 persistLocation="${jboss.server.data.dir}"
 persistName="JNDIMap.ser"/>
 <currencyTimeLimit value="10"/>
 <state-action-on-update value="keep-running"/>
 <persistence-manager value="org.jboss.mx.persistence.ObjectStreamPersistenceManager" />
 </descriptors>

 <class>org.jboss.test.jmx.xmbean.JNDIMap</class>

 <constructor>
 <description>The default constructor</description>
 <name>JNDIMap</name>
 </constructor>

 <!-- Attributes -->

 <attribute access="read-write" getMethod="getHost" setMethod="setHost" >
 <description>The IP address of the server</description>
 <name>Host</name>
 <type>java.lang.String</type>
 <descriptors>
 <default value="111.222.333.444" />
 </descriptors>
 </attribute>

.....

When I run the JMX console I would expect to see the value 111.222.333.444 there , but I don't. The field is empty.
If this is the correct behavior could someone tell me how and when is this default value used? Or am I missing something in the wml file?
Thank you.

Use the "value" tag instead of "default"

I defined my attribute using JBoss 4.2.2 as follows, but unfortunately there is still no value after deployment. Setting/Getting this attribute using the JMX-Console works flawlessly. Did I miss anything?

This is my current configuration

<attribute access="read-write">

 <description>My Description</description>
 <name>HotFolderPath</name>
 <type>java.lang.String</type>
 <descriptors>
 <default value="halloTest"/>
 </descriptors>
 </attribute>

Any input would be highly appriciated

...
<descriptors>
 <value>halloTest</value>
</descriptors>

sorry - my mistake.
This is, what I did.

[hamtho2]

By mistake I posted my "test-configuration" to see if it might work with the default-attribute.

This is, what I wanted to post:

<attribute access="read-write" getMethod="getHotFolderPath" setMethod="setHotFolderPath">

 <description>MyDescription</description>
 <name>HotFolderPath</name>
 <type>java.lang.String</type>
 <descriptors>
 <value>"halloTest"<value/>
 </descriptors>
 </attribute>

But this does not work either.

[hamtho2]

of course without the quotes.

By the way: if I define the getMethod and setMethod I also get an IllegalArgumentException. Only if I do not define them, everything works fine. This also seems strange to me.
