A WAR file has a location for support classes (WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes),
but EJBs do not. Is there any mechanism in jBoss's EAR support to package and
deploy support classes that may be used by multiple EJB jar files? These would
be classes that would normally be located in <jboss>/lib/ext if they could be
manually deployed.

The S2EE spec didn't seem to mention this capability. It seems like a great
shortcoming to not be able to specify class libraries that may be needed across
EJBs. It would even be benifical to provide a spec-compliant way to deploy these
classes across webapps in adition to EJBs as well. For example, a specific-JDBC
driver or set of String-manipulation classes could be useful across the entire
EAR file.

thanks,
