[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of EJB 3.0] - Enums with no References in External API

ejb3-ext-api contains: org.jboss.ejb3.annotation.AcknowledgementMode org.jboss.ejb3.annotation.Durability ...which have no references within the project, and, it appears, in AS: [alrubinger@localhost trunk]$ grep -R 'org.jboss.ejb3.annotation.Durability' . | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/client/jbossall-client.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/client/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/server/default/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/server/all/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./thirdparty/jboss/jboss-ejb3-ext-api/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./thirdparty/jboss/jboss-ejb3-ext-api/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api-sources.jar matches | | [alrubinger@localhost trunk]$ grep -R 'org.jboss.ejb3.annotation.AcknowledgementMode' . | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/client/jbossall-client.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/client/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/server/default/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./build/output/jboss-5.0.0.Beta3/server/all/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./thirdparty/jboss/jboss-ejb3-ext-api/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api.jar matches | Binary file ./thirdparty/jboss/jboss-ejb3-ext-api/lib/jboss-ejb3-ext-api-sources.jar matches | | [alrubinger@localhost trunk]$ pwd | /home/alrubinger/business/jboss/wc/jbossas/trunk | Possibilities: 1) These are vestigal, should be deleted 2) Are referenced by other components outside AS 3) Have their *values* referenced directly by AS, and should be bound together In any of these cases, these classes no longer belong in ext-api (impl at best). Anyone seeing a reason why these should not be removed? S, ALR View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4117182#...
