[wildfly-dev] Updating the WildFly archetypes

[Wolfgang Knauf]

Hi Eduardo,

after waiting some days, the archetype was added to the file mentioned
below. If this was your magical work, then "thank you!" ;-).

The deployment error for empty projects created based on the webapp
archetype is also gone for WildFly 18.

All issues are resolved, thanks for your work on the archetype!

When WildFly 19 is on the way, I will check whether changes are required.
What do you think is best: create a new archetype version for any
WildFly version, or do this only if relevant changes besides changing
the WildFly version in pom.xml are required? I would prefer creating an
archetype for each version - then a user has archetypes for any version,
without having to research compatibilites.

Best regards

Wolfgang
