[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (TEIID-413) Create Zip file for each connector with its dependencies for server setup

[Larry O'Leary (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/TEIID-413?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12456520#action_12456520 ] 

Larry O'Leary commented on TEIID-413:
-------------------------------------

Isn't this what the purpose of a CAF file is?  I would expect that we should package connectors as CAFs that contain the connector JARs, driver (if allowed), and the connector definition.  The server or installer would simply import the CAF and the logic of pulling the CAF apart would be placed on the server.

> Right now server pulls dependencies as whole, so it can not distinguish the dependencies between connector or itself. This poses issue in defining the files for the extension modules. So, these need to be come as whole with their dependencies.
