I did some much deeper digging; for example I was able to get Pluto
to marshal and unmarshal a servlet 2.4 descriptor file that validated
against the J2EE 2.4 XSD (right now some of the elements in the
castor mappings are out of order, the castor mapping files aren't
able to support namespaces, and the OutputFormatter of
AbstractCastorDescriptorService uses the incorrect Doctype etc).
Also, if I'm reading the 2.4 xsd correctly, the <distributable/> element
must not contain content. I presume that if <distributable/> is present
then the webapp is distributable, and if <distributable/> is *not*
present the webapp is not distributable. Currently the castor mapping
places a "<distributable>false</distributable>" in the web.xml which
doesn't validate against the xsd.
You are correct - unfortunately castor doesn't play nicely with this. .
.thus the problem.
So I guess what I meant by my original question (admittedly vague) is:
is it worth it to fix these issues in 1.0.1? Do they exist in 1.1 (I
didn't check)? Should they be fixed? I'll work on opening a Jira and
go from there.
Yes! I think it is. I'd definately be in favor of this since 1.1 is not
in GA yet.
