* A Bean annotated with @ObjectName will be registered with the local

* For this to work the bean must be a valid JMX MBean - i.e. the bean has
* an interface that has:
*
*
* - it's name ends with MBean
* - it's name ends with MXBean
* - been annotated with the javax.management.MXBean.
*

*
* The ObjectName used will be either: the bean's id if it contains a ":", otherwise
* it will be placed under the ObjectName: retep.kernel.beans:name= and the bean's id.
