[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-3694) Allow management client to associate metadata with DeploymentUnit

[Stuart Douglas (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3694?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12715915#comment-12715915 ] 

Stuart Douglas commented on AS7-3694:
-------------------------------------

I think that a better way to achieve this would be to use a deployment descriptor to specify the dependencies, and if this needs to be modified use a deployment overlay to make any changes to the descriptor that are needed.

> Currently there is no way to pass some metadata through the deployment API such that they could show up with the DU.
> As a client I'd like to say autostart=false and in my DUP I'd like to pick that up and not start a deployment (i.e. a bundle) automatically
> Generally it should be possible for the client to set some properties for the deployment in a generic way such that they get associated with the DeploymentUnit
> For an OSGi deployment it would be necessary to be able to define that start behaviour and the start level.
