JMX configurator should be able to use MBeanServers with a domain name ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBGENERAL-28 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBGENERAL-28 Project: logback-general Issue Type: New Feature Affects Versions: 0.9.16 Reporter: C Z Assignee: Logback dev list Currently, logback exposes an MBean to provide logging related controls via the inclusion of the following configuration: <jmxConfigurator /> However, this *always* uses the platform mbean server: MBeanServer mbs = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer(); (can be found in class JMXConfiguratorAction, line# 54). I think it should be able to provide an option to use an MBeanServer with a specific domain, which is provided in the JMX spec. The code needs to use the following: List servers = MBeanServerFactory.findMBeanServer(agentId); and then use the first one, possibly giving a warning if there are multiple. This is crucial for our use-case, especially because we have separate MBeanServers in our web-app environment, and we need each application to use its own MBeanServer with a specific domain. So, all in all, can we add an attribute of some sort, so that we can do the following: <jmxConfigurator agentid="someMbeanServerId"/> and if this is set, the code uses: MBeanServer mbs = MBeanServerFactory.findMBeanServer(agentId).get(0); and otherwise, it does whatever it used to do. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
