Hmm; points out a bit of conceptual ugliness. This is semi-OT, is my own thinking, and is more a JBoss AS discussion than mod_cluster, so just take it as food for thought. IMHO, AS services shouldn't start until there is some end-user usage of them. For example, why start JBoss Messaging until a queue or topic is deployed? This is conceptually easy enough to do; the JBM beans are "On Demand" and the queue/topic deployer adds a dependency on JBM, so deploying queue/topic demands JBM. Same logic applies to JBoss Web. In that case the infrastructure of a deployer adding the dependency on JBoss Web to the war is already there. But if you inject JBoss Web into ModClusterService and MCS isn't "On Demand", now JBW will be started even if no war is deployed. A workaround would be to make the war depend on MCS, but that's unnatural. This is a bit non-real-world, since in most cases a war (jmx-console, ROOT.war) will be deployed. But in a "developer" AS config designed for fast startup times, maybe not.

Remy said it wouldn't work or was a bad idea; don't recall the details. Somewhere in the Design of Tomcat Integration forum.
