Re: [wildfly-dev] Transaction subsystem dependencies

Hi all,
I'm reworking the Infinispan Server package so that it is built around
WildFly Core as I want to keep it as lean as possible.
I need to pull in a couple of additional subsystems from WildFly proper
and one of them is causing some head-scratching: the transactions
subsystem. It has a bunch of hard dependencies on a ton of modules which
really sound optional. Examples:
- the IIOP stuff
- Narayana compensations (JAX-WS, JAX-RS, Servlet API, Weld)
- HornetQ
We need IIOP for JTS support (we use the same jars for JTA and JTS so we
need it regardless of whether you enable JTS) .
We need hornetq to leverage their fast journal (for our transaction logs).
I agree that Naryana compensations should not be required by the
subsystem and this seems to be bringing in the bulk of the extra
dependencies. I will look into why we need to include it in the subsystem.
Do you have more examples or do you agree that if we addressed the need
for compensations in the subsystem then that would be good enough.

None of the above are really needed by Infinispan Server. I guess I
could apply manual surgery to the module.xml file to remove stuff I
think is unnecessary and let my testsuite verify if I'm being too
aggressive, but I was wondering whether it would be better for the
upstream project to be a bit more careful with the dependencies.
Thanks for any suggestions
Tristan
