Hi Glen an all;
I tried to do so but I couldn't able , that is because the module archive
file is inside the modules subdirectory inside the main jar file as below;
Axis2.jar
META-INF
org/apache/axis/.....
modules/
addressing.mar
rm.mar
I can get an inputstream for the module archive file (say addressing.mar)
and can read module.xml file and so on , but the problem comes to play when
I tried to load the module handlers and module implementation class , it was
very difficult to do so always it throws exceptions and intact I couldn't
find a way to fix that. That is why I need to copy and paste only the
corresponding module archive file in to what ever location and then treat
that module as others.
Any way take a look at the following method
creatModuleArchivefromResource() in
org.apache.axis.deployment.repository.utill.ArchiveReader class.
Thanks
Deepal

Hi folks:
Do we actually even need to "unpack" the mar file at all? Can we just use
GetResourceAsStream() to read stuff out of it directly?

Deepal sounds good to me, may be we do not need looking up the home
directory, and instead I prefer the current directory the code run.
I am not a big fan of a any arbitroy code that runs, messes with my
home direcotry :) even though they always to it ;). may be name should
at lease be .axis2/.... so it is hidden
Thanks

Hi all;
At the last chat we decide to bundle ws modules into axis2 distribution
and
without given the repository file name provide a way to engage modules.
So
in that case axis2 distribution archive file might look like below;
Axis2.jar
META-INF
org/apache/axis/.....
modules/
addressing.mar
rm.mar
In this case deployment will work as follows;
when some one ask to engage a module first it check whether that module
is
available in AxisConfiguration if it found then engage that module , else
it check inside user.dir/Axis2Home/modules/ directory and if the
required module found deploye that module and engage that , if it dose
not
available there then
try to load the corresponding module.mar file form the classpath
(getResourceAsStream) if it found then read it and write that into
user.dir/Axis2Home/modules/ as new module archive file. next using that
module archive file first deploy the module and engage that module.
In this case I made some assumptions
1. Assumed module archive file name equal to module + .mar
2. If the module archive found in the classpath extract into
"user.dir/Axis2Home/modules/ "
Comments ?
Thanks and regards
Deepal
