Since you used web as an example, I had a (relatively quick) look, and I
have some observations:
- It doesn't do taglib descriptors.
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-94
- No jboss-web.xml either.
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-93
- In the absolute ordering thing, the position of "others"
in the list
is needed.
Probably this should be applied to all iterable types, right? To
determine the order in any list of Elements?
- Shouldn't the EE elements be moved in superclasses ? Maybe
it's easier
this way though.
Superclasses are a function of code organization, really. In
Descriptors we take a bit of a different tack because the source is
generated from the XSDs. So typical rules like clean structure go out
the window, and all that matters is the bottom-line API and that the
impl passes our end-user tests.
Right now, I think it would be ok to handle this using a
"parser" for
JBoss Metadata, which would convert the SW descriptors to the JBoss
metadata objects.
What I'd like to do in the short-term is nail down the Descriptors EE
APIs, then we can ask if it makes sense to build layers atop this to
provide the other functions currently given by jboss-metadata (ie.
merging, validation, defaults). That's if AS7 subprojects start to use
this as the metadata view.
Right now, the main use case for Descriptors is in easily generating
metadata for tested archives (ie. Arquillian + ShrinkWrap @Deployments)
