[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-2897) externalize list of deployable jars in seam-gen projects

externalize list of deployable jars in seam-gen projects -------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2897 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2897 Project: Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Tools Affects Versions: 2.1.0.A1, 2.0.2.CR1, 2.0.1.GA Reporter: Dan Allen Assigned To: Dan Allen Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.0.2.CR2, 2.1.0.BETA1 Attachments: JBSEAM-2897-branch20-earproject-v1.txt, JBSEAM-2897-branch20-v1.txt, JBSEAM-2897-branch20-v2.txt, JBSEAM-2897-trunk-earproject-v1.txt, JBSEAM-2897-trunk-v1.txt Original Estimate: 30 minutes Remaining Estimate: 30 minutes Adding a new JAR to be included a seam-gen project deployment is a huge pain. You have to dive down into the middle of the build.xml file and find the inclusion list nested within the copy-libs target. Try explaining that to a newbie. Despite plans to redesign the dependency mechanism in seam-gen projects, I think it is important to fix the smaller issue at hand. Let's externalize the list of deployed jars and use <includesfile name="deployed-jars.list"/> to include them.
