[shrinkwrap-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Assigned: (SHRINKDESC-14) Design a way to handle multiple 'linked' Descriptor files

Design a way to handle multiple 'linked' Descriptor files --------------------------------------------------------- Key: SHRINKDESC-14 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-14 Project: ShrinkWrap Descriptors Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Aslak Knutsen Priority: Optional When working with Archive Descriptors, doing a single web.xml is easy. But when we move over to the container specific descriptors where some of the info in the 'auto' generated web.xml will be needed to map something together in the jboss-web.xml. ie: web.xml -> resource-ref -> res-ref-name jboss-web.xml -> resource-ref -> res-ref-name + jndi-name The point being some of the info in web.xml is needed to create the jboss-web.xml. Is there a way to link/automate this descriptor creation, so that the user avoid having to 'manually' add them both places. ie: desc = new WebArchiveDescriptor(JbossWebDescriptor, GlassfishWebDescriptor); desc.addResourceRef(DataSource, Name, JndiName) { this.addResourceRef(DataSource, Name); JbossWebDescriptor.add(Name, JndiName); GlassfishWebDescriptor.add(Name, JndiName); } I do realize that JNDI names could be a bad example, since in the old versions they were all container specific and in the new version they are standardized and not needed, but I'm sure there are other usecases...
