[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - Re: sar vs ear packaging

[thomas.diesler@jboss.com]

But why?

Isn't the enterprise jar supposed to expose some functionality remotely. If so, the console would be a client of that functionality like, any other component deployed on the container, like in fact a remote test case.

If test cases could use the enterprise beans to deploy processes remotely, all that cactus stuff would not be needed, right?

So what is the actual benefit of using the ear packaging? From my perspective it only adds another level of component packaging. In fact, since the enterprise beans do not form an integral part with the console alone, it would be quite inappropriate to package them together with the console.
