I'd still prefer to have extensions and system referenced from a different directory. Does the spec really mandate the file extension; I kind of preferred scdl myself

Hi,

I understand we endeavor to support isolated classloading for system, extension, and application. But I think we should be able to run a SCA application with the runtime and extension jars on its classpath if the user chooses to do so.

To be consistent with the SCA spec (xxx.composite), I suggest that we have the following conventions.

core:          META-INF/tuscany/system.composite (with includes)
extension:   META-INF/tuscany/extension.composite
application: META-INF/sca/application.composite

Thanks,
Raymond

Subject: Avoiding extension and application scdl collisions


I kind of have and closer idea why interop unit testcases fail when run from the maven command line. It appears the forking for some reason I'm still not 100% sure of puts the Axis2Binding jar in the same classloader as the application scdl. It could be the fork actually has dependencies need by the testcase already on the classpath? In any case when the application scdl is being search for it is being found in the extension jar because the default resource name is the same for both extensions and application scdl (META-INF/sca/default.scdl) I can for the testcase specifically rename the application scdl to something different and it then works. To avoid this and also provide the flexibility to load in one classloader scope would having default names as follows be reasonable?:
META-INF/tuscany/system/system.scdl.  (system)
META-INF/tuscany/extension/default.scdl (extensions)
META-INF/sca/default.scdl  (application)
(not too sure how this plays with the SCA archive proposal)

Also, I'm wondering if it is already possible, if we could add an xml attribute to system and extension scdl to identify it as such so when we are expecting one type and it does not have this attribute we throw an exception? This would have been a whole lot more helpful to me than the resulting NPE?

Thought?
