I don't see that this is worth the effort at this point. A URLDeploymentScanner that is searching subdirectories is duplicating a deployer handling nested deployments in an unpacked archive and is going to result in duplicate deployment attempts.
When using mulitple directories aren't you introducing additional dependency issues as now you would start all services, ejbs, wars, ears in one dir and then the next? This is bound to require new dependency specifications that were not needed before. Its the deployers that have to make the determination whether something is a deployment or a directory that should be added to the deployment scanner watch list. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scott Stark Chief Technology Officer JBoss Group, LLC xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sacha Labourey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2003 1:15 AM Subject: RE: [JBoss-dev] [PROPOSAL]: clean conf/jboss-service.xml & deploy > > Rather than a specialized SubDirSubDeployer, how about having the SAR > > report multiple watch-urls? > > Yes, that would be an idea. > > > It may also be possible to have the SAR start its own > > URLDeploymentScanner for its content rather than explicitly sub-deploy > > it.
