[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBBUILD-158) Jar canonicalization and dependency isolation

[Paul Gier (JIRA)]

Paul Gier commented on JBBUILD-158:
-----------------------------------

The maven assembly plugin can be used to package dependencies up with a project.  It can extract and rejar the dependencies together with your project files.  Is this something we want to do?

> We need to look at the jar hell issue we have in terms of uneccessary dependencies and exposure of neccessary dependencies as something other than an implementation detail. Two tools in this space we should look at are:
> genjar (http://genjar.sourceforge.net/) and jarjar (http://jarjar.sourceforge.net/).
