Exception Summary
InvalidKeyException	Thrown when an invalid key (a field name or row index) is passed to a method of the {@link CompositeData} or {@link TabularData} classes.
InvalidOpenTypeException	Thrown when a open data value has an erroneous open type.
KeyAlreadyExistsException	Thrown when a key (a field name or row index) is passed to a method of the {@link CompositeData} or {@link TabularData} classes and it is found to already be in use.
OpenDataException	Thrown when an instance of one of the open types, open data objects or open metadata information objects could not be created due to invalid construction parameters.

Package javax.management.openmbean Description:

Provides the data types and descriptor classes for the Open MBeans. Open MBeans are provided in order to aid interoperability with non-Java management systems. Unlike normal MBeans, which make use of any Java data type, Open MBeans use a restricted set of types which can then be mapped over remote connections, including to non-Java systems.

Normal MBeans are described using an instance of {@link javax.management.MBeanInfo} with appropriate representations of the attributes, constructors and operators associated with the bean. Open MBeans are described in the same way, but by using subtypes of these entities, which type the bean data using instances of {@link javax.management.openmbean.OpenType}. Open types differ from Java types, and are explicitly specified in order to obtain interoperability with other systems.
