I think that the word 'content' is very overloaded. People will see
'Seam JCR' and most will immediately recognize what it is, however
'Seam Content' is more ambiguous. My +1 is for Seam JCR, but I'm
open to what other people think.
Yes, I have basic structure that can be put into both api and
impl. No test cases right now though. We can argue over
annotation names if you'd like :-)
Shane,
What top level package do you suggest? org.jboss.seam.jcr ?
org.jboss.seam.content ? I'd prefer the latter, especially if
we do eventually look at implementation specific features.
It's great to see this collaboration take
place, and it's quite obvious to me that the
idea of a Seam JCR module would be appealing to
many developers. George and John, would you
both be willing to work on this module
together? For the time being I propose that we
create a Seam JCR project at github (and treat
it as a sandbox for now) which you can both
commit to. I can put the basic project skeleton
in place so that it conforms in structure to the
other Seam modules. What do you think?

Funny you bring up this topic this
week. I was planning to propose a Seam
Content module this week, mostly because
my schedule is finally clear enough to
allow me to work on it. At this point,
I have basic capabilities to inject the
necessary JCR objects into CDI beans and
that all works. I will admit though, I
am a little biased towards ModeShape as
that is the other JBoss project I work
on. Cross platform support would work
correctly using the service loader +
repository factory approach. In
addition to basic injection support, I
was also looking to provide the
equivalent of a
SeamManagedPersistenceContext for JCR.
There are also some ModeShape specific
features I was bouncing around,
including CDI enabled connectors,
sequencers; as well as connecting their
event model w/ CDI's event model.
I was thinking to create a
Seam JCR module to allow JCR
(Java Content
Repositories) to be injected in
code. It should work for
jackrabbit as
well as modeshape or any other
jcr 2.0 compliant
implementation. Any
suggestions ? Comments
appreciated.
