I was talking with Bruce about making the Jetty/Tomcat choice a simple

run this by people.
Can the plan parsers support the <!ENTITY> to be used as an include?

I think so. They may also include XML-Includes as well.

Example:
<!ENTITY jetty SYSTEM "includes/jetty.xml">
I am sure you can start to see the idea? The idea is to remove all
references to Jetty in the j2ee-server-plan.xml, and allow it to "include"
the proper configuration.  We can do this for the deployer and
runtime-deployer plans as well.  This way we only need to comment/uncomment
just a couple of places.

Is this something that is doable?  Thoughts?


Ugly :-) Should work. May run into problems with paths and/or resolving. What base are the includes relative to (hate it if you had to be in a specific directory)?

We should make sure to include all the plans in the final distribution (after velocity post-processing for version info).
