How to enable JBossWS' LogRecorders globally? - jboss

Question

I'm using Wildfly 8.1.0.Final.
I have RecordingServerHandler configured, it does get triggered by web services' messages. The problem is, LogRecorders are disabled by default.
The Records management article says:
Default processors are not in recording mode upon creation, thus you need to switch them to recording mode through their MBean interfaces (see the Recording flag in the jmx-console).
Enabling them in runtime one by one for each endpoint won't do, I need to enable them globally at "development time".
The same article says:
The recorders can be configured in the stacks bean configuration
<!-- Installed Record Processors-->
<bean name="WSMemoryBufferRecorder" class="org.jboss.wsf.framework.management.recording.MemoryBufferRecorder">
<property name="recording">false</property>
</bean>
<bean name="WSLogRecorder" class="org.jboss.wsf.framework.management.recording.LogRecorder">
<property name="recording">false</property>
</bean>
What's "stacks bean configuration"? Does the specified WSLogRecorder name imply that this configuration creates another, non-default, LogRecorder by that name, and that I would need to add it to all endpoints somehow?

Ended up enabling them via JMX at the end of deployment.
import java.lang.management.ManagementFactory;
import java.util.Set;
import javax.management.Attribute;
import javax.management.MBeanServer;
import javax.management.ObjectName;
/* ... */
MBeanServer server = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer();
Set<ObjectName> recorderNames = server.queryNames(
new ObjectName("jboss.ws:recordProcessor=LogRecorder,*"), null);
for (ObjectName recorderName : recorderNames) {
server.setAttribute(recorderName, new Attribute("Recording", true));
}
