Hmm what are the chance seam-gen will ever work with GlassFish?

[jbossnoob]

Probably none huh ? :)

Yeah, considering Seam is a JBoss product I think they will focus to support JBossAS more.

Really? And here I thought that the Seam guys were pushing for a homogeneous deployment environment.

AFAIK all products are open source.
So anyone can change it.

And, by the way, why can you not use the generated artefacts with glassfish? There is a documentation in the seam wiki how to setup a project on glassfish.

So you should be able to generate with seam-gen and than copy all needed artefacts to the appropriate place.

That is the same thing i do with jboss AS.
scnr.

It's nice to have the whole deployment plus testing configured properly to work with the application server you are using. A seam-gen project will not generate a project that will work with GlassFish.

Is it that hard and time consuming to set up a project manually? I have several Seam templates that I use for Tomcat 6.x (one with persistence, one without, one with persistence and testing, etc.). All I do is copy one of the templates and add new files to it in my editor. That way I don't have to rely on any given IDE.

It would probably be more constructive to provide or discuss specific issues you are having with container support than approaching it in this way.

There are several examples that are build specifically for Glassfish. 

• "examples/jpa"


• "examples/hibernate"

have builds specifically for Glassfish. 

The "examples/jee5/booking" is specifically configured to work with Glassfish out of the box.

If you have issues deploying or running them, please share then so that we can address them or help your configuration. 

As for priorities Seam is intended to work with all of the major containers.  There are reference guide chapters for WebLogic, WebSphere, and OC4J.  These were originally written using Seam 2.0.X, and are planned to be updated as part of or shortly after the 2.1 GA release.
