deployment as a Security Realm plug in module

[alanshields]

Is it possible to install a security realm plug in as part of a deployed application rather than as a module?

The class loading documentation suggests that I could use a module name like deployment.myear.ear.myjar.jar but when I add this to the security realm configuration I get

JBAS015261: Unable to load plug-in for module deployment.myea.ear.myjar.jar due to error (Module deployment.myear.ear.myjar.jar:main is not found in local module loader

If I where to re package the plug in as a module I would need to somehow add a dependency to the deployed application.

Thanks

Noticed a few people have viewed this so here's what I did in the end.

1) Write the actual functionality in an EJB as part of the application using JPA or whatever else.

2) Declare the local interface for the EJB within the plug in

3) call the ejb from the plug in module, you'll probably need a couple of plug in properties to specify where to look up the EJB

4) add a dependency on the plug in module in to the application.

This way the plug in and the application both reference the same local interface but you don't need any dependency from the plug in to the application.
