             Summary: Provide a solution to access external files from within a Java EE Artifact. 
                 Key: AS7-3357
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3357
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: EE, VFS, Web
    Affects Versions: 7.1.0.CR1
            Reporter: Mo Zo
            Assignee: David Lloyd


In earlier versions of JBoss AS it was possible to access external web resources (e.g. html files) via symbolic links from within an exploded Java EE Artifact (e.g. war, ear). 
In AS 4 this could be achieved by setting allowLinking to true in the context.xml.
Can you please provide a possibility for JBoss AS 7.x (EAP 6) to provide/access these external web resources.
