Ears, Depends and Deployment ordering
I have an ear file with a -service.xml file containing a system properties service that loads some properties that I want to use to configure a -ds.xml file that defines a resource adaptor service. (the service and ds files are included below)
If I deploy the ear file the properties are not substituted into the -ds.xml file when the resource adaptor is deployed. But if I move the property service outside of the ear file then it all deploys OK.
It looks like the substitution of the system properties into the -ds.xml file is happening before the system property service is deployed. I have a dependency in the -ds on the property service but that doesn't seem to help.
Is there any way to get this to work as expected? I think the expansion of the -ds.xml file is happening too soon when it is included in the ear file.
I'm running a 3.2.3 jboss server.

<!-- In the bad old days of *-xervice.xml files there was a criteria tag in ManagedConnectionPool
definition that told the pool how to compare connections in the pool for equvalence.
The Criteria attribute indicated if Subject (from security domain) or app supplied
parameters (such as from getConnection(user, pw)) are used to distinguish
connections in the pool. Choices were
- ByContainerAndApplication (use both),
- ByContainer (use Subject),
- ByApplication (use app supplied params only),
- ByNothing (all connections are equivalent, usually if adapter supports reauthentication)
These values are now deduced from two elements in the *-ds file.
- If the application-managed-security element is present then the criteria is ByApplication
- If the security-domain element is present then the criteria is ByContainerAndApplication
- Otherwise the criteria is ByNothing
There is no way of defining ByContainer pool management now.
Currently we are using ByNothing.
