[jboss-as7-dev] Configuration of subsystem webservices - ${jboss.bind.address}

[Brian Stansberry]

If you haven't seen it, have a look at the <xs:complexType 
name="outbound-socket-bindingType"> in jboss-as-config_1_2.xsd. One of 
the intended uses cases was for supporting this kind of thing.

TBH, I don't see that as being a huge advantage over what you're doing 
now; it would just be more regularized.

The reason I'd like to see an alternative (not replacement) config to 
what you have now is for the common case where the desired values are 
the address/port of the JBoss Web connector in the AS process. The way 
it is now, this can very easily fall out of sync, since setting 
jboss.bind.address is just one of many ways to configure the JBoss Web 
connector socket.
