Subject: [jboss-as7-dev] default configurations (was: Re: Changes to .jsp in an exploded
deployment no longer picked
up?)
Is AS7 targeting developers or admins?
It has to target both. In fact, a large majority of the work is on the admin side of
things, reference the administration CLI, the new console, the cleaned up configuration
even for standalone (one configuration file for all subsystems instead of hundreds of
files).
Developers and admins have a slew of different, and many times
opposing, concerns.
Take exploded vs. unexploded. As a dev, "explode away!". As an
admin, "wrap that sucker up into one file, por favor".
If we're going to choose one to target, "out of the box", which is it
going to be?
I'd rather not choose, and instead offer options... but what are
options without defaults? "A lot of work." ba dum dum.
Why not offer well documented, pre-baked configurations? Something a
bit more fine grained than "nothing" and "everything" and
"web"?.
Eh. I dunno. Guess JBoss tuning is sorta a profession in itself,
neh... Do we really want to change that? ;)
I guess making standalone the "development" config is o.k., but
somehow it sorta bugs me too. Something about polluting the
difference between standalone and domain, which I don't think is so
much about internal deployment options, as it is about external
deployment stuff, if that makes sense. I'm a total newb to AS7, so,
take it with a grain of salt.
