The hooks work mutually exclusive. i.e. there is one hook for every type of deployment. The hooks themselves delegate to a DeloymentAspectManager, which excecutes the DeploymentAspects - the work of those aspects are rolled back on failure. | // start the deployment | for (int i = 0; i < getDeploymentAspects().size(); i++) | { | DeploymentAspect aspect = getDeploymentAspects().get(i); | try | { | logInvocation(aspect, "Start"); | aspect.start(dep); | } | catch (RuntimeException rte) | { | while (i-- >= 0) | { | // destroy the deployment | failsafeDestroy(aspect, dep); | } | throw rte; | } | } | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4066606#...
