David Lloyd commented on AS7-1928:
----------------------------------
Even if such a filter may be applied, importing another module's META-INF is generally
not adequate to have it be recognized as an additional source for deployment descriptors.
Allow deployments to get access to the META-INF folder of their
dependency module

Key: AS7-1928
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1928
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Alpha1
Reporter: Marius Bogoevici
Priority: Critical
Currently there is absolutely no mechanism (outside of manipulating dependencies
programmatically through a subsystem) for deployments to get access to some META-INF/xyz
files from a module that they declare as a dependency, except are in META-INF/services.
This is a serious impediment when considering the installation of third party libraries
as shared libraries (modules) in JBoss AS. Some frameworks may rely upon locating internal
descriptors in META-INF, and if the libraries are installed as modules, the descriptors
are not accessible to the framework. Essentially, there is no way of accessing resources
under META-INF unless they are either services, or the library is packaged in the
deployment.
