Mainly so that I don't have to delete the XML and DOM stuff that we
ship with (xerces, dom4j, couple others that don't "play nice") to get
'er to deploy on AS5 . :)
OK you *should* be able to deploy things which include those kinds of
libs in AS7. At least, we specifically built support for those XML
libs, but it's not terribly well-tested, so if you are running into
specific issues we'd love to hear about it.
So how does the XML stuff (xerces I *think* (maybe xalan- I deleted
a
bunch of libs) was the culprit-- I'll track it down further) fit in?
Can I isolate 'er more, I guess I'm wondering? How can I achieve the
same ease of deployment on AS7 as I did by using
jboss-classloading.xml on AS5?
It's not really clear yet, because I'm not quite sure what the effect of
what you did is.
I noticed that with the EAR deployment, I didn't see any
"Class path
entry in lowagie.itext.jar does not point to a valid jar for a
Class-Path reference" warnings- but I dunno if that's just 'cause they
were suppressed (how can I get more debugging information when
deploying, BTW?).
The next beta should have somewhat better error reporting. By the time
we get to GA it should be fairly comprehensive.
I'm guessing that the answer will be "no", but is there
some
documentation somewhere showing how someone could take a standard JEE
war and "modularize" it for AS7?
Not really, I mean it's all automatic. A deployment and each of its
nested JARs become modules (more or less) and the dependencies are
automatically wired up.
