I hvae been trying out different things and doing lot of searches to no avail and getting frustrated. Any help would be really appreciated. I am a beginner and using JBoss 5.1 I need to write  a custome deployer similar to Ear deployer. Experience with ear deployer has been the foll: 1. Does not seem to deploy in the order mentioned in the application.xml (there have been other posts addressing this- but I couldnt figure out whether this is fixed or not).TO make this work do I need to chnage the StructureDeployer. 2. I also see that on failure of one of the modules the whole ear is not undeployed. is there any way I can write my custom deployer managing the order and register a listener in the event one of the modules being deploed has an exception. To do this which Helper deployer do I need to extend. I also couldnt figure out the purpose of the AppParsingDeployer. If I do not add my new suffix in deployer.xml for the JarStructure bean, can I untar and keep copying each moduel manually in the order mention in my descriptor (say application.xml). Or is there a way I can call each sub deployer specifically. This way I can see if there's any error. Adding to the JarStructure seems to explode my ear and the sub modules are deployed automatically.- I would like to control this.
