RoleInfo

public RoleInfo(String roleName,
                String mbeanClassName,
                boolean read,
                boolean write,
                int min,
                int max,
                String descr)
         throws IllegalArgumentException,
                InvalidRoleInfoException,
                ClassNotFoundException,
                NotCompliantMBeanException
Constructor.

Parameters:
roleName - name of the role.
mbeanClassName - name of the class of MBean(s) expected to be referenced in corresponding role. If an MBean M is in this role, then the MBean server must return true for isInstanceOf(M, mbeanClassName).
read - flag to indicate if the corresponding role can be read
write - flag to indicate if the corresponding role can be set
min - minimum degree for role, i.e. minimum number of MBeans to provide in corresponding role Must be less than or equal to max. (ROLE_CARDINALITY_INFINITY for unlimited)
max - maximum degree for role, i.e. maximum number of MBeans to provide in corresponding role Must be greater than or equal to min (ROLE_CARDINALITY_INFINITY for unlimited)
descr - description of the role (can be null)
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if null parameter
InvalidRoleInfoException - if the minimum degree is greater than the maximum degree.
ClassNotFoundException - As of JMX 1.2, this exception can no longer be thrown. It is retained in the declaration of this class for compatibility with existing code.
NotCompliantMBeanException - if the class mbeanClassName is not a MBean class.

                NotCompliantMBeanException
Constructor.

Parameters:
roleName - name of the role
mbeanClassName - name of the class of MBean(s) expected to be referenced in corresponding role. If an MBean M is in this role, then the MBean server must return true for isInstanceOf(M, mbeanClassName).
