[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-7708) support specifying the runtime-name in the deployment descriptor

Gregor Rosenauer created WFLY-7708: -------------------------------------- Summary: support specifying the runtime-name in the deployment descriptor Key: WFLY-7708 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7708 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Enhancement Components: EE Affects Versions: 9.0.2.Final Environment: Java EE 7 Reporter: Gregor Rosenauer There is often a need to change the name of a deployment, e.g. the EAR, from the default name to a stable name. The problem is that common Maven practice mandates a version suffix, generating a fully versioned EAR. Wildfly by default (which is only changable from CLI/management console) takes the full name without the extension. This leads to clunky and brittle code, e.g. JNDI lookups *have* to use the full name including version, which is most often undesirable. As suggested in https://developer.jboss.org/thread/213914 I am creating this issue now,-) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.2.3#72005)
