[rules-users] Deploy rules to JBoss server

[Joe White]

I agree with Michael that web apps lib is the best scenario. We
provision ours in an ear directly. I should qualify that though in that
we use a third party project along with Drools and Jboss that leads us
to put other jars in an ear.

I believe the most important thing is to be consistent in terms of
handling all libraries. So I think the best practice is to be consistent
with all jars, and expose them whenever possible.

To clarify, this is more of a general "best-practices" question. Are
their
any guidelines from experienced enterprise systems techs for deploying
applications in JBoss that rely on third party JARs. 

If we deploy the JARs in our EAR, like Joe suggests, we are assured that
our
app will use the versions of the JARs we've tested against which
improves
reliability for our app.

If we deploy the JARs to the web apps lib, the enterprise has a central
repository for the JARs and can (idealistically) resolve bug fixes in
multiple applications at once by upgrading a central component - such as
drools.

Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated.
