[jboss-as7-dev] JBOSS_HOME/client in AS7 for client accessible jars

[Max Rydahl Andersen]

Does this relate to any of the work Andrew was talking about in context of https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-650 ?

> These poms allow the EE APIs to be brought into your maven project adding a single dependency.  See my recent blog post[3] on the subject.
> The use of the pom will also be referenced in Pete's Developer Guide.

> In previous versions, we had JBOSS_HOME/client folder where we used to 
> ship the Java EE jars and some JBoss specific ones for end users to add 
> them to their compile/runtime classpath. This is currently missing in 
> AS7 and users are finding it difficult to find and refer to those jars 
> within the "modules" of AS7. Some users have run into classpath being 
> too long issues too, due to this.
> 
> To overcome this, I have this patch 
> https://github.com/jaikiran/jboss-as/commit/f2f01c839ba9540d2aee3d13a5e5d069070989b5 
> which creates a <jboss-as-dist>/client folder containing (right now 
> just) the spec API jars. The sole purpose of JBOSS_HOME/client is to 
> make available these client accessible jars.More jars may be added later 
> on, if it makes sense to include them there.

> Thoughts? If no one has any objection, can this branch 
> https://github.com/jaikiran/jboss-as/commits/client-lib be pulled 
> upstream please?
