And yes, adding AS source distribution an easier way would be good - but for that to work
we need some kind of co-release with AS that has the src available so if you point to such
a thing we could attach it as source automatically. My understanding was that such a thing
doesn't yet exist...do you know of one ?
My best bet is that AS 6 should have maven artifacts for all its .jars so this should be
much easier done for that.
That of course leaves the question what to do for AS 4 and AS 5
Just curious, has any progress been made on this issue?
I had manually hunted down a lot of source attachments in the JBoss AS source directory
(some are quite hard to find, like servlet-api.jar has its sources in
jboss-web-sources.jar or something like that). However, when I moved to a new
installation, I had to re-attach all those dozen of source code jars again. I'm
starting to remember some now, so the third or fourth time along it gets easier, but
it's still a rather unpleasant task to do.
Thank you again for taking the trouble to look into this.
