| <p>Tomcat uses JMX MBeans as the technology for implementing |
| manageability of Tomcat.</p> |
| |
| <p>The descriptions of JMX MBeans for Catalina are in the mbeans-descriptors.xml |
| file in each package.</p> |
| |
| <p>You will need to add MBean descriptions for your custom components |
| in order to avoid a "ManagedBean is not found" exception.</p> |

| <p>You may also add MBean descriptions for custom components in |
| a mbeans-descriptors.xml file, located in the same package as the class files |
| it describes.</p> |
| |

| the <a href="mbeans-descriptors.dtd">DTD</a> file.</p> |
