[jboss-as7-dev] How to prevent the server from adding implicit dependencies

[Jason Greene]

Hi Mylos, you have to remove it for every subdeployment that you don't want it to show up on. This is because we add it to everything in the ear when anything uses it. This is not ideal and we are going to restrict that to a smaller scope but in the meantime your jboss-deployment-structure needs a sub-deployment section for each war and jar. Also if you dont want stuff in ear/lib to see it you need the toplevel exclusion you are doing now.

Note though that once you get this working old hibernate versions have a bug in it's vfs scanning that triggers on AS7. Scott Marlow is working on a solution where we would ship an updated annotation scanning component that 3.x hibernates can use.

There is also a work around where you can list your entities directly in XML.

Lastly, we are also working on a pluggable jpa layer that would allow you to replace hib4 with  hib3 (or any other provider) as the jpa provider on a per deployment basis.
