                 Key: AS7-1577
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1577
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Modules
    Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Alpha1
            Reporter: Nicklas Karlsson
            Assignee: David Lloyd


It would be nice to have a utility for creating modules and/or locating dependencies of a 3rd party jar. It could work something like

1. Given n JAR files and a name a module structure and module.xml would be created
2. Tattletale would be employed to detect the complete structure of dependencies
3. The Modules API would be used to walk the module repository to see if the missing dependencies are already modules and add the correct dependency to the module.xml
4. (optional) provide a way to input for maven coordinates of missing dependencies so they too can be converted to modules or included in  the module.

As people are migrating from ASx -> AS7 there will probably be a lot of cursing over CNFEs of own and 3rd party libs
