Description L Martinek 2005-02-22 16:08:48 UTC
There is Module Mappings panel in
sun-application.xml, which seems to be useless.
How I can add new mapping and what it is for?
Comment 1 Vince Kraemer 2006-06-07 01:00:27 UTC
this should be in the serverplugins category
Comment 2 _ pcw 2006-06-07 01:34:19 UTC
It would help if I knew exactly what you were talking about here.

I'm going to guess it's the module reference customizers that are visible for
each submodule of the ear (even though only application/web has any meaningful
content).  You can get new ones of the appropriate type by adding modules to the
ear.

This is an artifact of an old JSR-88 inspired DConfigBean model in the NB 3.6
timeframe and does not mean much now, but it's currently more work to remove it
than it's worth.

Actually, given that the application config editor no longer supports
simultaneous editing of the sun descriptors for all the contained modules, maybe
we can get rid of it by just deleting the xpaths from the factory.  I'll check
on this.

Gone in 6.0.

If it comes back in some form later (e.g. to have GUI fields for web context root override), we won't have JSR-88
forcing unnecessary UI on us for other module types such as ejb-jars.
