[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-2165) Change filenames for consistency

Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-2165:
---------------------------------------
Yes, the documentation refers to both the term connector and resource adapter. The full
proper name would be "J2EE Connector Architecture Resource Adapter", or its
sometimes shown as "J2EE Connector Resource Adapter". Since MetaMatrix
previously used "connector" it was easier to just to carry forward the
short-hand term connector.
It looks like the common convention for jboss is to use -ra.rar (which is redundant as rar
implies a resource adapter). So we could produce teiid-xxx-ra.rar files to be consistent
within jboss, but since there's nothing explicitly wrong with using -connector.rar
that would be a very low priority effort.
Change filenames for consistency
--------------------------------
Key: TEIID-2165
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2165
Project: Teiid
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Misc. Connectors
Reporter: B Long
Assignee: Steven Hawkins
Priority: Minor
Many of the connectors in the deploy directory are referred to as adapters (including in
the description field of their META-INF/ra.xml files). And we are told in much of the
documentation that the connector framework consists of translators and resource adapters.
However, the connectors in the deploy/teiid/connectors directory are named
teiid-connector-*.rar. I would like to suggest that these be renamed to
teiid-adapter-*.rar for consistency. And that the eis-type field of their META-INF/ra.xml
files also be changed accordingly.
