Why don't we do this for JBossCache and PojoCache (with quite
some deps)
already ?
We could look at it. There are 2 disadvantages to doing it:
1) License compatibility (have to make sure deps have compatible licenses)
2) A fatter jar
Because the embeded JARs might conflict with the user's copies
(different versions) ?
It solves this by doing package translation. For example org.apache.foo
becomes org.jgroups.thirdparty.foo.
BTW: I'm really looking forward to Java 7's java feature
which let's you
list directories with JARs, rather than the individual JARs
Amen. Something that should have been there long ago.
