Exactly right. We do need an easier way to support JDBC 3 drivers
though. Once https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-431 is merged we
should have more options though.
Yup, and it's good to discuss the design. When
we all agree I'll open an
issue and I'll take care of implement it (after 431 of course)
Or, we could introduce a new content type just for services:
<deployment name="my-driver.jar">
<fs-archive path="deployments/my-driver.jar"
relative-to="jboss.server.deploy.dir"/>
<service type="java.sql.Driver">
<class name="com.foo.blah.SomeDriver"/>
</service>
</deployment>
I like this one. Other opinions?
