JMXConnectorFactory

public class JMXConnectorFactory extends Object

Factory to create JMX API connector clients. There are no instances of this class.

Connections are usually made using the {@link #connect(JMXServiceURL) connect} method of this class. More advanced applications can separate the creation of the connector client, using {@link #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map) newJMXConnector} and the establishment of the connection itself, using {@link JMXConnector#connect(Map)}.

Each client is created by an instance of {@link JMXConnectorProvider}. This instance is found as follows. Suppose the given {@link JMXServiceURL} looks like "service:jmx:protocol:remainder". Then the factory will attempt to find the appropriate {@link JMXConnectorProvider} for protocol. Each occurrence of the character + or - in protocol is replaced by . or _, respectively.

A provider package list is searched for as follows:

  1. If the environment parameter to {@link #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map) newJMXConnector} contains the key jmx.remote.protocol.provider.pkgs then the associated value is the provider package list.
  2. Otherwise, if the system property jmx.remote.protocol.provider.pkgs exists, then its value is the provider package list.
  3. Otherwise, there is no provider package list.

The provider package list is a string that is interpreted as a list of non-empty Java package names separated by vertical bars (|). If the string is empty, then so is the provider package list. If the provider package list is not a String, or if it contains an element that is an empty string, a {@link JMXProviderException} is thrown.

If the provider package list exists and is not empty, then for each element pkg of the list, the factory will attempt to load the class

pkg.protocol.ClientProvider

If the environment parameter to {@link #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map) newJMXConnector} contains the key jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader then the associated value is the class loader to use to load the provider. If the associated value is not an instance of {@link java.lang.ClassLoader}, an {@link java.lang.IllegalArgumentException} is thrown.

If the jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader key is not present in the environment parameter, the calling thread's context class loader is used.

If the attempt to load this class produces a {@link ClassNotFoundException}, the search for a handler continues with the next element of the list.

Otherwise, a problem with the provider found is signalled by a {@link JMXProviderException} whose {@link JMXProviderException#getCause() cause} indicates the underlying exception, as follows:

  • if the attempt to load the class produces an exception other than ClassNotFoundException, that is the cause;
  • if {@link Class#newInstance()} for the class produces an exception, that is the cause.

If no provider is found by the above steps, including the default case where there is no provider package list, then the implementation will use its own provider for protocol, or it will throw a MalformedURLException if there is none. An implementation may choose to find providers by other means. For example, it may support the JAR conventions for service providers, where the service interface is JMXConnectorProvider.

Every implementation must support the RMI connector protocols, specified with the string rmi or iiop.

Once a provider is found, the result of the newJMXConnector method is the result of calling {@link JMXConnectorProvider#newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL,Map) newJMXConnector} on the provider.

The Map parameter passed to the JMXConnectorProvider is a new read-only Map that contains all the entries that were in the environment parameter to {@link #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL,Map) JMXConnectorFactory.newJMXConnector}, if there was one. Additionally, if the jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader key is not present in the environment parameter, it is added to the new read-only Map. The associated value is the calling thread's context class loader.

Methods Summary
public static javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorconnect(javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL serviceURL)

Creates a connection to the connector server at the given address.

This method is equivalent to {@link #connect(JMXServiceURL,Map) connect(serviceURL, null)}.

param
serviceURL the address of the connector server to connect to.
return
a JMXConnector whose {@link JMXConnector#connect connect} method has been called.
exception
NullPointerException if serviceURL is null.
exception
IOException if the connector client or the connection cannot be made because of a communication problem.
exception
SecurityException if the connection cannot be made for security reasons.

        return connect(serviceURL, null);
public static javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorconnect(javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL serviceURL, java.util.Map environment)

Creates a connection to the connector server at the given address.

This method is equivalent to:

JMXConnector conn = JMXConnectorFactory.newJMXConnector(serviceURL,
environment);
conn.connect(environment);

param
serviceURL the address of the connector server to connect to.
param
environment a set of attributes to determine how the connection is made. This parameter can be null. Keys in this map must be Strings. The appropriate type of each associated value depends on the attribute. The contents of environment are not changed by this call.
return
a JMXConnector representing the newly-made connection. Each successful call to this method produces a different object.
exception
NullPointerException if serviceURL is null.
exception
IOException if the connector client or the connection cannot be made because of a communication problem.
exception
SecurityException if the connection cannot be made for security reasons.
