Body:
.zip is the way Oracle and some other vendors distribute their libraries, renaming all
of them every time the new version is out is a major pain, as well as a training issue
for any new stuff that will be responsible for my project in the future.
Developers who write build scripts are smart enough to know what they are putting in
the project.xml and what has to go on the classpath. If developer needs to put .ejb or
even .foo on the classpath I see no problem with letting him do that. And then I also
don't understand why is <type> in the project.xml is allowed to be different then .jar
if only .jar goes to the classpath ?? What is the point of having any other type in
dependency list if it's not used?
Thank you for your time.
