Joe Bohn commented on GERONIMO-3316:
------------------------------------
Can somebody (Jeff?) please clarify why support for a directory only
specification rather than specific jars? Why can't you just use /lib and avoid
having to code manifest classpath at all if it is a problem to specify each jar
name?
If it is directory support and other more lenient support is necessary (beyond
listing all of the problems) ... can you please provide more details on what
you would like to see? In addition to directory support there was another
reference to permitting missing jars (presumably without error) and allowing
the deployment to succeed. Are there other areas that you would like more
lenient, non-spec compliant interpretation?
If we do support this it will be via a command line param,
-DXorg.apache.geronimo.deployment.LenientMFCP=true which I have on my local
image rather than a plan addition ... now we have to figure out what that
exactly means. Thanks.
> warn but don't prevent deployment if an ear's manifest cps are messed up, and
> provide more info on where.

>
> DeploymentContext.getCompleteManifestClassPath figures out the whole set of
> jars in an ear in a modules classpath. If somethings missing it throws an
> exception and prevents deployment. We need a switch to be more lenient, and
> we need to provide more info when there's a problem on which jar has the
> problem and how we found it.
> Thanks to David Harbige on the user list for pointing out that this is a big
> usability problem.
