Jeff Mesnil commented on WFLY-7721:
-----------------------------------

[~robertjlee] I confirm that in wildfly master branch it is already possible to specify a modulename:slot in the jms-bridge's module attribute. I have updated the JMSBridgeTest to check this feature.

> It would be nice to specify the slot, along with the module, for a JMS bridge.
> *Use case*:
> When setting up a JMS bridge with a foreign JMS system, the "module" option can be used (as a CLI parameter or an XML attribute) to specify the library code for the foreign JMS system, as a JBoss Module.
> We have a number of different versions of a legacy messaging API. We have previously set up modules for direct use within our deployed application code, using different slots for different versions of the foreign JMS system.
> We are now trying to migrate away from our different messaging systems towards Wildfly/Artemis, and have tried to set up JMS bridges to connect with the different systems.
> Unfortunately, it is not possible to use any module slot other than "main" with a JMS bridge. There is no "slot" attribute in the XML, and if we try to use "modulename:slot" notation, then we get an error saying that the module could not be loaded. Turning up debugging shows it is looking for "modulename\:slot:main".
> This seems like an omission, and is causing us to have to rework code to avoid the use of slots for different versions of the same library, which seems like a step backwards.
