[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4320) ESB Projects does not respect WTP module dependency rules

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4320?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12482093#action_12482093 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-4320:
------------------------------------

As I've said before, one of the goals of JBoss code is to not make anything "magical". 

We'd like to make it easy for the user to have ultimate control and to understand whats happening because they understand their requirements better than we do. This means that the user might change his output folder, republish, and find all his .class files not there. Then he can go to the "Module Assembly" page and change the mapping himself. 

In the future we will add in these automatic changes, but the most important thing now is having something easy for the user to understand that is CONTROLLABLE by the user. This is a VERY different way of doing things than most of WTP does it which is why it doesn't matter how WTP does it. Our goal is to do it this way.

> It is not possible to include modules as dependencies of a JBossESB module. The expected behaviour is that ESB modules should behave as EAR modules.
> For example, if I want to mimick the webservice_consumer quickstart structure using WTP projects, I expect to end-up with 2 projects :
> - an ESB project
> - a Dynamic Web Module project, set as dependency of the ESB project
> I expect to have the .war archive copied at the root of the ESB archive, but:
> 1. it is not possible to configure dependencies with graphical tools (in the project properties)
> 2. Manually editing the org.eclipse.wst.common.component file to add the dependency solve nothing to the problem.
> The same applies for EJB/EJB3 projects (to mimick the helloworld_service quickstart), JPA projects and Utility projects.
