[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBAS-4037) Add support for ear lib directory

Add support for ear lib directory --------------------------------- Key: JBAS-4037 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4037 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA Reporter: Scott M Stark Assigned To: Scott M Stark Fix For: JBossAS-4.2.0.CR1 Add support for a library-directory to jboss-app.xml similar to the java ee 5 notion: A .ear file may contain a directory that contains libraries packaged in JAR files. The library-directory element of the .ear file's deployment descriptor contains the name of this directory. If a library-directory element isn't specified, or if the .ear file does not contain a deployment descriptor, the directory named lib is used. An empty library-directory element may be used to specify that there is no library directory. All files in this directory (but not subdirectories) with a .jar extension must be made available to all components packaged in the EAR file, including application clients. These libraries may reference other libraries, either bundled with the application or installed separately, using any of the techniques described herein.
