[jboss-dev-forums] [EJB 3.0 Development] - ejb3-deployers-jboss-beans.xml core

[jaikiran]

While working on some of the integration points for ejb3-nointerface component, i noticed that the ejb3-deployers-jboss-beans.xml in "core" has MC beans from across various other components (like ejb3-deployers) on which "core" never even depends (not even transitively). For example, we have the:

  | <bean name="Ejb3MetadataProcessingDeployer"
  |     class="org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.Ejb3MetadataProcessingDeployer" />

The org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.Ejb3MetadataProcessingDeployer comes in from the ejb3-deployers component on which core has no dependency. 

I am planning to move that bean definition out to a ejb3-blah-what-do-we-call-this-jboss-beans.xml in the ejb3-deployers component. This way, it will be more tied to the ejb3-deployers component and any changes to the bean internals, in a new version can be managed within this components.

Any thoughts around this? Although it doesn't directly affect backward compatibility (i.e. we still ship this bean, although in a new file and a different component) is there anything else that i should be concerned about while moving this?

P.S: This is just one example. There are many other MC bean configs in that file which probably need to be moved to their own components.
