[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Assigned: (JBAS-8786) JBoss unpacks all jars from WEB-INF\lib of war file

JBoss unpacks all jars from WEB-INF\lib of war file --------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-8786 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8786 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Web (Tomcat) service, z - Legacy - Deployers Affects Versions: 6.0.0.Final Environment: Windows XP x32 Reporter: Maxym Pendyshchuk Assignee: jaikiran pai Fix For: 6.1.0 Attachments: jarbomb.zip, JBAS-8786.patch, jboss-as-server.jar while starting JBoss AS it unpacks all jar files, which are located in WEB-INF/lib folder of each my war file. It means that in tmp folder mostly I see folder with jar file, and folder with its content. E.g. jackrabbit-server.war contains library asm-3.1.jar, then in tmp folder I see the following folders with files: asm-3.1.jar-83dc35ead0d41d41/asm-3.1.jar asm-3.1.jar-2a48f1c13ec7f25d/contents/"unpacked asm-3.1.jar" actually when I repack jackrabbit-server.war to jackrabbit-server.ear which contains jackrabbit-server.war and moved all its libraries to jackrabbit-server.ear/lib then I still see two folders in tmp: asm-3.1.jar-215a36131ebb088e/asm-3.1.jar asm-3.1.jar-14695f157664f00/contents/ but in this case last folder is empty. So it still creates two folders, but does not unpack my library. Also I use exploded deployment so the question is only about jar files, not unpacking ear/war. the problem is that it slows down application server booting (when I repack all my war files as ear and moved war libraries to ear/lib folder then I save 2+ minutes at JBoss 6 booting...). If it is done deliberately (so it improves some performance at runtime), then would be nice to have a configuration option, so during development I can save time to boot my local JBoss AS
