lang-management modification - it may break customer application?

[Jing LV]

Hello,

I see there is some modifiction in the
java.lang.management.ManagementFactory, e.g, newPlatformMXBeanProxy. The
LogManager.LOGGING_MXBEAN_NAME in Java7 has been changed and now
represents PlatformLoggingMXBean rather than
java.util.logging.LoggingMXBean.
I understand this is the stradegy to move all MXBean into
java.lang.management package. However in JDK6, customers may already use
java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.newPlatformMXBeanProxy(someserver, LogManager.LOGGING_MXBEAN_NAME,
LoggingMXBean) to get LoggingMXBean and in JDK7 he would meet a
IllegalArgumentException. I am wondering if there is a solution to avoid
this, e.g, allow it still return LoggingMXBean?

Thanks.
