[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-1854) web-fragment.xml not loaded from a static module

[Stuart Douglas (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1854?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stuart Douglas updated WFLY-1854:
---------------------------------

    Issue Type: Feature Request  (was: Bug)


This is by design, and is actually specified in the servlet spec that it works this way (i.e. that web-fragment.xml is only loaded from within the deployment).

> Having a custom static module, e.g. org/jboss/solder which contains solder.jar with META-INF/web-fragment.xml with some filters defined (e.g. CatchExceptionFilter)
> and a WAR application, e.g. catch-basic-servlet (on of Solder examples) with jboss-deployment-structure.xml such as
> {code}
> <jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2">
>     <deployment>
>         <dependencies>
>             <module name="org.jboss.solder" meta-inf="import"/>
>         </dependencies>
>     </deployment>
> </jboss-deployment-structure>
> {code}
> The filters defined in the solder's web-fragment.xml don't seem to work, while the same app works fine if the solder.jar is deployed in the WAR in the WEB-INF/lib instead of a static module.
> People seem to assume that whatever works for WEB-INF/lib would also work for a static module. This assumption should either be fulfilled or clearly explained to people if it doesn't hold.
