can we get host controllers to push out subsystem extension modules?
by John Mazzitelli
<TL;DR>
If I define my own subsystem configuration in one of the domain controller's profiles, can the DC/HC push out my subsystem extension module to the managed standalone servers just like it pushes out deployments to them?
</TL;DR>
In WildFly's Domain Operating Mode you can define Server Groups in your Domain Controller configuration [1]. In these Server Groups you say what deployments should be deployed on which servers, like this:
<server-group name="main" profile="default">
<deployments>
<deployment name="foo.war" runtime-name="foo.war" />
</deployments>
</server-group>
The DC and HC will do their thing to ensure those deployments are installed on the managed standalone servers. [3]
Additionally in your Domain Controller configuration, you can define profiles with different subsystems [2] (so presumably some managed standalone servers can have some subsystems, where others in different profiles don't have to have them - or at least could be configured differently). For example:
<profiles>
<profile name="default">
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.0">
<connector name="http" scheme="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" socket-binding="http"/>
[...]
</subsystem>
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:fictional-example:1.0">
<socket-to-use name="unique-to-bigger"/>
</subsystem>
[...]
</profile>
</profiles>
My question is - does the DC and HC manage that "fictional-example" subsystem extension module just like they handle deployments? In other words, will that subsystem's module get pushed out to the managed standalone servers (in the same way the DC/HC ensures the deployments are pushed out to the managed standalone servers?) If so, where do you put the module directory? On the DC, like deployments [3]? If not, how does this "fictional-example" subsystem that is defined in the profile make its way to the managed standalone server?
Thanks,

Refactoring process ?
by Miles Teg
Hello Everyone,
I'm part of a team trying to analyse the effects of refactoring on large
codebases. In this regard, we are analysing the Wildlfy project and the
JIRA tickets.
We would like to know:
i) Do you follow a particular conventions for changes that are
refactorings: e.g. special ticket type or commit messages
ii) Are there specific tickets that are examples of large-scale
refactorings that were done with the intention of improving maintainability.
Would appreciate any pointers in this regard :)
Thank you in advance,
Miles
