So, if I have an ejb-jar which depends on some code deployed from an 
xml, which is all used by a service deployed by a sar... where do my 
files go?

This may simplify the code which has to deal with depdenencies... by 
basically avoiding the problem... but it complicates the user 
configuration...

With the recent mod to UDS this will work... just list new directory 
urls in jboss-service.xml.

Um... ya... well there have already been several others who have 
commented on this... lets not get confused over runlevels and Sn|Kn 
ordering... which are there only because the system does not have the 
capacity to define or ask the services started from the script what the 
dependecies are.

The problem of solving the dependecies automatically inside of the 
server aren't really that huge... just a bit tricky here and there.  We 
are almost there, with the depends element... but we need to finish off 
the job... by extending that to j2ee deployables (which can be done by 
adding support and config to jboss.xml) and by changing the system to 
wait for all dependencies to be meet before attempting to install any of 
the service into the spine.

Perhaps dependecies should be rethought all together... not that I 
particularly want to spend any time there... but perhaps someone should. 
 In the mean time I don't think we should move the complexity on to 
configuration/users.

Short-term, sorting ala UDS for scanned directories is enabled.  This 
should fix the issues we have seen...
