Joe Bohn commented on GERONIMO-3586:
------------------------------------

IIUC the client is actually running on a particular server and hence a particular container.  The client can only retrieve information for that container.  Therefore, it provides no value for a client to have extraneous interfaces available to it for another container.  

It is the monitoring console  (also running on a particular server/container) that is the integration point for multiple containers.  However, the monitoring console itself does not access the stats directly.   

So it would seem to me that a monitoring client is by design always limited to one container and it provides no value to have excess interfaces available for another container.  I won't press the point much further, but I still don't see value in the client having access to interfaces that it cannot utilize.  So it makes sense to me that we consolidate the container specific classes under the container plugin (the intent behind GERONIMO-3587).

> The collecting agent plugin needs to have separate jetty and tomcat plugins in order to accommodate for the differences in container specific dependencies on stats implementation (.e.g JettyContainerStatsImpl and JettyConnectorStatsImpl). When the collecting agent was an EAR, this was not a problem; however, as a plugin, it is more tied down to having to specify all dependencies in the plugin's classpath.
