Class MBeanServerLocator

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.security.util.MBeanServerLocator

public class MBeanServerLocator
extends Object

A helper class to locate an MBeanServer. MBeanServer lookup strategy enhanced to allow the explicit setting of a particular instance to be returned. This is needed to allow re-using the jdk5 ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer() as our main MBeanServer. The DefaultDomain name of this server cannot be set, and it seems to be "null" by default (probably a bug).
