+1 !

I'd also like to change those names...

(and a second little question about the same subject : how could we control the method's order in the MBean HTML page ? It's not the order of the interface, not the order of the implementation... )

+ 1 :-)

Hi all,

I've read the FAQ and did not find anything about it...

Is there a way to give "human readable" names to method-parameters for MBean in JBoss jmx-console?

Thanks for advice.

Yes there is - Spring to the rescue! Here is an example:

In you MBean, decorate your method with annotations like this:

 @ManagedOperation(description = "Create a job")
 @ManagedOperationParameters({
 @ManagedOperationParameter(name = "accountName", description = "The name of the account to create the Job in."),
 @ManagedOperationParameter(name = "applicationName", description = "The name of the application to create the Job in."),
 @ManagedOperationParameter(name = "jobName", description = "The name of the Job to create."),
 @ManagedOperationParameter(name = "lineItems", description = "input line items for the job. Fields are comma-separated. Lines are linefeed separated")
 })
 public String createJob(String accountName, String applicationName, String jobName, String lineItems) throws Exception
{
 // MBean code here
}
