  • Field Details

    • name

      protected String name
      The name of the feature. It is recommended that subclasses call getName() rather than reading this field, and that they not change it.

    • description

      protected String description
      The human-readable description of the feature. It is recommended that subclasses call getDescription() rather than reading this field, and that they not change it.

  • Constructor Details

    • MBeanFeatureInfo

      public MBeanFeatureInfo(String name, String description)
      Constructs an MBeanFeatureInfo object. This constructor is equivalent to MBeanFeatureInfo(name, description, (Descriptor) null.
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the feature.
      description - A human readable description of the feature.

    • MBeanFeatureInfo

      public MBeanFeatureInfo(String name, String description, Descriptor descriptor)
