[jbosstools-dev] Re: a classpath container problem about JBoss server jars

We tried doing it the way you're suggesting, Denny, by facet alone. However, some core eclipse facets did not respond properly by asking us (me, the server) to install the appropriate additions to the classpath. Because several core eclipse facets were incorrect, it was decided that we should do what the other adapters did. By a wide margin, what the other adapters did was add every possible jar onto the classpath. It was decided it was more important for it to just work automatically for the most common use cases (dynamic web project, jsf, etc) than it was to force the user to go adding their own jars to the classpath for facets that refused to ask me for additions. I suppose I could have gone the other way with this and filed bug reports with each and every eclipse facet which did not respond appropriately, (and we did for some), but we had releases we wanted to get out. It was not possible to do it the other way and still release. Eclipse would have taken forever.
