[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JCA on JBoss] - Re: Programmatic deployment--Redux

[weston.price@jboss.com]

Prototype is just about done. The last work involves hooking the DsDeployer into the JMX kernel where the current MBeans (ConnectionManager, Pool etc) can be generated. This actually turned out to be much easier than I originally thought it would be. That was the last real road block. 

The *-dsx.xml format pretty much mimics the old format with a few exceptions. Again I want to avoid an either/or approach for this type of stuff. I think it's  beneficial to have multiple paths for this type of stuff.

The old XSL deployer will still be around in the case that someone wants to use it so it's not as if we are making a complete break. Once JCA gets rewritten against the JCA 2.0 spec and the new MC stuff I anticipate the XSL deployer fading away.

I was skeptical at first, but I actually like the new deployers/deployment model. It allows for a ton of extension/plugin points that were all but impossible before.
