MXBeans
MXBeans are a specialized form of Java Management Extensions (JMX) MBeans designed to expose management information in a way that is portable across JVM boundaries and languages. Introduced as part of the standard JMX tooling, MXBeans map method signatures to Open MBean data types, enabling clients to manage resources in different JVMs without dealing with Java-specific data structures.
A defining feature is the use of a restricted type system. Methods in an MXBean interface use
Declaration and deployment: An MXBean interface is typically annotated with @MXBean and implemented by a concrete
Relation to MBeans and Open MBeans: MXBeans are a specialization of MBeans designed for cross-JVM portability.
Usage: MXBeans are supported by common JMX tools such as JConsole and VisualVM, and are useful in
