global web access to fckeditor

[bwalker55]

I'm moving my web apps from Tomcat to jBoss.

One of tools that I used in all applications on Tomcat was fckeditor. It was installed at ../webapps/fckeditor and was available to all applications from /fckeditor.

What is the equivalent in jBoss?
Installing to ../deploy/fckeditor does not work.
Renaming the directory to fckeditor.war does work, but I find this a bit odd.

I read in another post about installing fckeditor in the ROOT application. Not sure how this would work and how other applications would see it.

So, I suppose my question would be: looking for recommendations or best practices on how to provide a .js library (such as fckeditor) to all installed web applications in jBoss (5.1.0 GA).

Thanks, Bob.

This is the correct way. Unlike Tomcat which supports only one app type (WAR apps), Jboss AS supports many app types and the suffix (.war) on the directory is necessary to identify the app type.
