Hi all,
I have a class that extends ServiceMBean that has an Inteceptor
that extends AbstractInceptor that never seems to get called.

MBean Class:

public interface ParsingAgentMBean extends org.jboss.system.ServiceMBean {

 com.digitalreasoning.kdas.Message parse(com.digitalreasoning.kdas.Message msg) ;

jboss-service.xml:

 <mbean code="com.clarity.cpin.agent.ParsingAgent"
 name="drs.kafe:type=LocalAgent,name=ParsingAgent">
 <depends>drs.kafe:type=Host,name=Host</depends>
 <descriptors>
 <interceptors>
 <interceptor code="com.digitalreasoning.kdas.util.rtfConverter.RTFConverterInterceptor"/>
 </interceptors>
 <persistence persistPolicy="Never"/>
 <currencyTimeLimit value="10"/>
 <state-action-on-update value="keep-running"/>
 </descriptors>

 </mbean>

 <mbean code="com.clarity.cpin.agent.ParsingAgentTester"
 name="drs.kafe:type=LocalAgent,name=ParsingAgentTester">
 <depends>drs.kafe:type=LocalAgent,name=ParsingAgent</depends>
 </mbean>

I'm calling it just for testing from the startService method in ParsingAgentTester.
calling code:

 logger.debug("Starting Service");
 ObjectName parseAgentName = new ObjectName(ParsingAgent.OBJECT_NAME_STR);
 MessageFactory msgFac = MessageFactory.getMessageFactory(2, new String[]{"dummy1","dummy2"});

 Message msg = msgFac.createMessage(null,"This is a message");
 System.out.println("Is ParsingAgent registered? : "+mBeanServer.isRegistered(parseAgentName));
 logger.debug("Calling ParsingAgent.parse(msg) via MBeanServer");
 mBeanServer.invoke(parseAgentName,"parse", new Message[]{msg},
 new String[]{Message.class.getName()});
 super.startService();

std out:
15:58:37,785 DEBUG [ParsingAgentTester] Starting

I've put print outs that is called from the constructors of the inteceptor:

public class RTFConverterInterceptor extends AbstractInterceptor{

 private RTFParser converter;

 public RTFConverterInterceptor(){
 super();
 createConverter();
 }

 public RTFConverterInterceptor(String s){
 super(s);
 createConverter();
 }

 public RTFConverterInterceptor(MBeanInfo mBeanInfo, MBeanInvoker mBeanInvoker){
 super(mBeanInfo, mBeanInvoker);
 createConverter();
 }

 public Object invoke(Invocation invocation) throws InvocationException{
 String opName = invocation.getName();
 System.out.println("RTFConverterInterceptor opName : "+opName);
 // If this is not the invoke(Invocation) op just pass it along
 if(opName.equals("invoke") == false){
 return getNext().invoke(invocation);
 }

 Object[] args = invocation.getArgs();
 // Do our stuff here.
 //converter.reinitialize();

 return getNext().invoke(invocation);
 }
 private void createConverter(){
 System.out.println("Creating RTFConverter");
 converter = RTFParser.createParser(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
 }
}

The stack trace does not show any indication of the inteceptor and there
is no output from it. I have a feeling the NPE probably hase something
to do with the missing inteceptor.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks,

Andrew
