<s1 title="JMX: Management Extensions">

<summarylist/>

<s2 title="Instrumenting Resources">

<p>Instrumenting resources so JMX can manage them consists
of the following steps:</p>

<ol>
<li>For a class <code/MyFoo/>, create an interface <code/MyFooMBean/> with
the management interface.
<li>Class <code/MyFoo/> needs to <var/implement/> the <code/MyFooMBean/> interface.
<li>Register <code/MyFoo/> with the JMX server.
</ol>

<s3 title="Instrumenting a servlet">

<p>Resin will automatically register any servlet which
implement an MBean interface.  By default, the JMX name will be:</p>

<def>
web-app:j2eeType=Servlet,name=<var/servlet-name/>
</def>

<deftable title="ObjectName attributes">
<tr><th>Attribute<th>Value
<tr><td>j2eeType<td>Servlet
<tr><td>WebModule<td>the <var/contextPath/>
<tr><td>J2EEApplication<td>the host?
<tr><td>J2EEServer<td>the server-id?
</deftable>

<p>The domain is <var/web-app/>, the type property
is javax.servlet.Servlet and the name property is the value
of &lt;servlet-name>.</p>

<p>JMX clients will use the name to manage the servlet.  For example,
a client might use the pattern <var/web-app:type=javax.servlet.Servlet,*/>
to retrieve all managed servlets.</p>

<example title="MyServletMBean.java">
package test;

public interface MyServletMBean {
  public int getCount();
}
</example>

<example title="MyServlet.java">
package test;

import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;

public class MyServlet extends GenericServlet implements MyServletMBean {
  private int count;

  public int getCount()
  {
    return count;
  }

  public void service(ServletRequest request,
                      ServletResponse response)
    throws IOException
  {
    PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

    count++;

    out.println("Hello, world");
  }
}
</example>

</s3>

</s2>

<s2 title="Managing Resources">

<p>Managing resources uses the JMX API, primarily using
the <code/MBeanServer/> object.  In Resin, each web-app has
its own <code/MBeanServer/>.</p>

<example title="Getting the Count attribute">
import javax.management.*;

...

MBeanServer server = MBeanServerFactory.createMBeanServer();

ObjectName name = new ObjectName("web-app:j2eeType=javax.servlet.Servlet," +
                                 "name=hello");

Object value = server.getAttribute(name, "Count");

out.println("Count: " + value);
</example>

<s3 title="/resin-status">

<p>The <a href="servlet-library.xtp">resin-status servlet</a> has a
primitive generic JMX management view of JMX managed servlets.
By adding a MBean interface to your servlet, you'll automatically get
a view of your servlets from /resin-status.
