[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - [1.3 CVS]Tomcat users getting the shaft?

First of let me thank the Seam team for their hard work and effort creating an excellent application framework. Now to the meat, this maybe my misguided misconception but the latest changes for 1.3 HEAD are very dishearten to me. I?ve been following Seam since 1.0. When it was first announced that Seam would support an EE1.4 environment, including Tomcat I finally took the plunge and we began creating our first application in Seam. Although it appeared to be overkill to use micro-container, just to get JTA and JNDI support in Tomcat it was easy to live with. Just adding a jar to WEB-INF/lib and the adding jndi.properties to your classpath is all it took. Following Seam?s CVS, I see that micro-container has been replaced with JBoss Embedded Beta 2. Which requires you to MODIFY the Tomcat base install and modify the conf/server.xml? Possibly affecting other applications already installed on the server. Essentially you have to install ?JBoss AS? to get setAutoCommit(false), commit(), rollback(), and to lookup an 2 Objects (EMF/UT). I my eyes this is definite overkill. According to http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=110887 1.3 ALPHA included ?extension point for integration with non-JTA transaction environments.? I can find documentation on this anywhere. I assume he is referring to the new Transaction component http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1144 According to http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-992#action_12365465 the ?extension? points still not complete. Which so much of Seam not depending on an EE environment, With the exception of JMS I just do see why the JTA / JNDI dependencies are mandatory. Since MC has been dropped could you please revisit these issues? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4056963#...
