             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Tools
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0.A1, 2.0.2.CR1, 2.0.1.GA
            Reporter: Dan Allen

            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.2.CR2, 2.1.0.BETA1


Adding a new JAR to be included a seam-gen project deployment is a huge pain. You have to dive down into the middle of the build.xml file and find the inclusion list nested within the copy-libs target. Try explaining that to a newbie.

Despite plans to redesign the dependency mechanism in seam-gen projects, I think it is important to fix the smaller issue at hand. Let's externalize the list of deployed jars and use <includesfile name="deployed-jars.list"/> to include them.
