Hi, Jira (some number I can't find right now since jira is down) about supporting branding of AS7 for EAP6, SOA-P 6 etc. got resolved with no comments/info on *how* it was solved and how tools, JON, etc. is to react/use this. Could anyone spill the beans on that ? /max http://about.me/maxandersen _______________________________________________ jboss-as7-dev mailing list jboss-as7-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-as7-dev

1) how was this in the end implemented ? Something need to change at startup? 2) can we use this branding content to somehow identify the server (type/name)

Look for a MANIFEST.MF file in one of the nested directories of modules/org/jboss/as/product/XXX [module.xml specifies it, but there will only be one] 4. Parse the values
