Jim Ma [http://community.jboss.org/people/jim.ma] created the discussion "CXF jms integration" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/536441#536441 -------------------------------------------------------------- After looked at Alessio's work about cxf descriptor deployment and lazy bus load removal , I'd like to discuss with you about my thoughts about jms integration. Here is what in my mind so far .As we talked before , we need to introduce other deployer or deployerAspect to make cxf stack directly deploy/load jbossws-cxf.xml. IMO, the easy approach to implement this is adding several real stage deployers to the current deployer chain to take care of the jms deployment without web.xml:     `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSEJBAdapterDeployer@4007f4 `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSTypeDeployer@d6f833 `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentDeployer@103ddfd `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1279d82(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointMetricsDeploymentAspect(a)b77801) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1fa6e43(org.jboss.webservices.integration.metadata.ContainerMetaDataDeploymentAspect(a)1e7c7fb) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@fcc66a(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointHandlerDeploymentAspect(a)18b3f9a) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@124a94(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.BackwardCompatibleContextRootDeploymentAspect(a)6fcd57) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@4aba6a(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.URLPatternDeploymentAspect(a)fb39f6) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@8d69f8(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointAddressDeploymentAspect(a)13bf9ce) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1f99aa6(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointNameDeploymentAspect(a)929ed4) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1f8a03f(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.VirtualHostDeploymentAspect(a)4a9acb) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@e9635a(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.JAXBIntroDeploymentAspect(a)12cebd2) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1744996(org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.aspect.DescriptorDeploymentAspect(a)1e890b4) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@864ae7(org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.aspect.ResourceResolverDeploymentAspect(a)1214a13) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@4fdf56(org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.aspect.BusDeploymentAspect(a)79bca4) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@6e1cbf(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.ContextPropertiesDeploymentAspect(a)827b51) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@786a44(org.jboss.webservices.integration.tomcat.WebMetaDataCreatingDeploymentAspect(a)c9f31e) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1850507(org.jboss.webservices.integration.tomcat.WebMetaDataModifyingDeploymentAspect(a)b6cddb) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1ee86f2(org.jboss.webservices.integration.security.JACCPermissionsDeploymentAspect(a)1ec0b9d) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@31613(org.jboss.webservices.integration.injection.InjectionMetaDataDeploymentAspect(a)182ac61) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1d61032(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointRegistryDeploymentAspect(a)d91c60) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1d37602(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointRecordProcessorDeploymentAspect(a)9f987a) `--org.jboss.webservices.integration.deployers.WSDeploymentAspectDeployer@1a30367(org.jboss.wsf.framework.deployment.EndpointLifecycleDeploymentAspect(a)1bb1dd2) + org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.JBossWSCXFMetaDataDeployer(to parse the jbossws-cxf.xml and create JBossWSCXFMetaData)  + org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.JBossWSCXFJAXBIntroDeploymentDeployer(to do the jaxb databinding customization)  + org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.JBossWSCXFDeploymentBuilderDeployer(to create deployment, service and endpoint etc)   + org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.JBossWSCXFDeploymentDeployer(to let the cxf bus load the jbossws-cxf.xml)  + org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.deployment.JBossWSCXFEndpointRegistryDeployer(to register the endpoint)  I marked the new add deployer with "+" prefix and these new add deployers will be put the end of the DeploymentAspect deplyers.    As you can see ,there will be some duplicate work/code in the these deployers with above DeploymentAspects. But it makes the deployer structure  more clear and these new added deployers are dedicated to handle the jms deployment and other stack specific deployment without web.xml.   The another option is we handle it both in integration layer and cxf stack : 1. Create a unified MetaData/holder to reprsent or place the stack specific deployment :jbossws-cxf.xml.  2. Modify the WSDeploymentDeployer to handle the deployment without JBossWebMetaData  3. Add the code in the current DepoymentAspects ,for example EndpointHandlerDeploymentAspect, DescriptorDeploymentAspect and BusDeploymentAspectin to process the stack specific deployment (without web.xml).   We can put the code to process the cxf jms deployment in each DeploymentAspect, so this approach will reuse the function in each deployment aspect.This will change a lot in current integration layer and deployers framework and it's a little bit complex.    After the comparison, I prefer to the first approach. Because at the moment, only cxf has this requirement to deploy stack specific deployment. And it is also simple :only adding some new additional deployers for cxf stack can make it work . It will not impact the other components : integration layer , spi and framework codebase.  You thoughts ? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/536441#536441] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
