Parameters:
attribute - The name of the attribute to be retrieved
Returns:
The value of the attribute retrieved.
Throws:
AttributeNotFoundException

                         ReflectionException
Set the value of a specific attribute of the Dynamic MBean.

Parameters:
attribute - The identification of the attribute to be set and the value it is to be set to.
Throws:
AttributeNotFoundException
InvalidAttributeValueException
MBeanException - Wraps a java.lang.Exception thrown by the MBean's setter.
ReflectionException - Wraps a java.lang.Exception thrown while trying to invoke the MBean's setter.

getAttributes

AttributeList getAttributes(String[] attributes)
Get the values of several attributes of the Dynamic MBean.

Parameters:
attributes - A list of the attributes to be retrieved.
Returns:
The list of attributes retrieved.

setAttributes(javax.management.AttributeList)

setAttributes

AttributeList setAttributes(AttributeList attributes)
Sets the values of several attributes of the Dynamic MBean.

Parameters:
attributes - A list of attributes: The identification of the attributes to be set and the values they are to be set to.
Returns:
The list of attributes that were set, with their new values.

getAttributes(java.lang.String[])

invoke

Object invoke(String actionName,
              Object[] params,
              String[] signature)
              throws MBeanException,
                     ReflectionException
Allows an action to be invoked on the Dynamic MBean.

Parameters:
actionName - The name of the action to be invoked.
params - An array containing the parameters to be set when the action is invoked.
signature - An array containing the signature of the action. The class objects will be loaded through the same class loader as the one used for loading the MBean on which the action is invoked.
Returns:
The object returned by the action, which represents the result of invoking the action on the MBean specified.
Throws:
MBeanException - Wraps a java.lang.Exception thrown by the MBean's invoked method.
ReflectionException - Wraps a java.lang.Exception thrown while trying to invoke the method
