Hi !

I've been using JBoss AS 7 and its modules for quite a while now, but I'm actually still running with a issue for the availability of modules in subdeployements.

I've got a certain amount of modules which I want to be accessibles in all subdeployements of a single EAR. I currently use the following jboss-deployement-structure.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

Is there a way to not repeat all the dependencies in every modules ? I was originally expecting ear-subdeployments-isolated FALSE to make the job, but according to the documentation this only deals with lib shipped in the EAR.

I also read in the documention about the global modules, but this would be for any EAR, while I wanna just to this for a single EAR.

Any idea?

Thanks
