Re: [forge-dev] Forge plugin for different Application Servers

Rafael, Ideally, support for multiple application servers (even AS 7) would be done by leveraging Arquillian's container adapters. You don't want to have to do all the work again of creating these adapters, so reuse is key. Arquillian's container adapters are not coupled to the Arquillian Core, so you can use them standalone. There is a prototype of a maven plugin that supports any container with an Arquillian adapter here: https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-maven You'll likely just want to use this as a reference point when developing the forge plugin (you don't have to go through Maven). Of course, you could also create a Forge plugin that simply configures the Arquillian Maven plugin. Feel free to experiment to figure out which approach is best. -Dan On Mon, Nov 5, 2012 at 6:09 AM, Rafael Soares <rafaelcba(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Hello guys. > > I'm a completely newbie Forge user.
