    Description

      The JarDeployer refuses to add jars to the classpath if there is a META-INF/.xml pattern seen. This is overly restrictive as it excludes jars like the myfaces jar which includes a META-INF/faces-config.xml. If the JarDeployer had a descriptor list attribute which defines the list of META-INF/.xml names that should cause the JarDeployer to ignore the jar rather than ignoring all jars with META-INF/*.xml files this would simplify use of existing jar packages.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
