Method Detail

preRegister

public ObjectName preRegister(MBeanServer server,
                              ObjectName name)
                       throws Exception
Allows the MBean to perform any operations it needs before being registered in the MBean server. If the name of the MBean is not specified, the MBean can provide a name for its registration. If any exception is raised, the MBean will not be registered in the MBean server.

Parameters:
server - The MBean server in which the MBean will be registered.
name - The object name of the MBean. This name is null if the name parameter to one of the createMBean or registerMBean methods in the MBeanServer interface is null. In that case, this method must return a non-null ObjectName for the new MBean.
Returns:
The name under which the MBean is to be registered. This value must not be null. If the name parameter is not null, it will usually but not necessarily be the returned value.
Throws:
Exception - This exception will be caught by the MBean server and re-thrown as an MBeanRegistrationException or a RuntimeMBeanException.

postRegister

public void postRegister(Boolean registrationDone)
Allows the MBean to perform any operations needed after having been registered in the MBean server or after the registration has failed.

Parameters:
registrationDone - Indicates whether or not the MBean has been successfully registered in the MBean server. The value false means that the registration phase has failed.

preDeregister

public void preDeregister()
                   throws Exception
Allows the MBean to perform any operations it needs before being unregistered by the MBean server.

Throws:
Exception - This exception will be caught by the MBean server and re-thrown as an MBeanRegistrationException or a RuntimeMBeanException.

postDeregister

public void postDeregister()
Allows the MBean to perform any operations needed after having been unregistered in the MBean server.
