What's the idea here: - http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBDEPLOY-4 Should we currently just do this: | if (files.size() == 0) | { | return null; | } | else if (files.size() > 1) | { | return parseMultipleFiles(files); | } | else | { | VirtualFile file = files.get(0); | T result = parse(vfsDeploymentUnit, file, root); | if (result != null) | init(vfsDeploymentUnit, result, file); | return result; | } | } | | /** | * Handle multiple matching files. | * | * @param files the matching files | * @return merged metadata or null if already handled | * @throws Exception for any error | */ | protected T parseMultipleFiles(List<VirtualFile> files) throws Exception | { | throw new DeploymentException("Handling multiple files not supported: " + files); | } | and let every sub-parser deployer take care of it as it knows best?
