Archive Browser does not support jar:file: url protocol
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBCOMMON-7
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCOMMON-7
             Project: JBoss Common
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: core
         Environment: jdk 1.5.8
jboss 4.0.4ga
hibernate 3.2cr2
hibernate entity manager 3.2.0.CR1
Using ejb3/entity manager annotations
            Reporter: Chris Mercer
         Assigned To: Dimitris Andreadis
            Priority: Critical


We have a seperate jar file that contains all of our model/entity objects.  This jar gets put in the WEB-INF/lib directory, since we are only using wars and not ears.  Using the hibernate auto-discovery feature causes an exception to occur. In this configuration.


Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: NOT IMPLEMENTED
	at org.jboss.util.file.ArchiveBrowser.getBrowser(ArchiveBrowser.java:42)
	at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.scanForClasses(Ejb3Configuration.java:541)
	... 148 more


org.jboss.util.file.ArchiveBrowser.getBrowser(URL url, Filter filter) only supports URLS that have a protocol of "file".  However, jars have a protocol of "jar:file:" and therefore it will throw a RuntimeException saying "NOT IMPLEMENTED" (at least according to my debugger).  There is already a JarArchiveBrowser class, the ArchiveBrowser just needs to recognize the protocol and handle it.  

This also affects Hibernate entity manager, since it gets included in the jboss-archive-browsing.jar in order to handle the auto-discovery of mapped entities feature.  

I've marked this as critical, since it effects entity manager features (though its only advanced hibernate only functionality)
