I would like to add several additional matches to the DeploymentFilter in jboss-service.xml. For example in the root of our war we have several symbolic links that link to several hundred gigabytes of content, I'd like skip that directory.

Option 1 (Prefered):
I would like to be able to specify addtional directories to ignore in an attribute of the mbean in jboss-service.xml but there doesn't seem to be any notion of and excludes list, in there.

Option 2:
Extend DeploymentFilter and add addtional "matches". However, this doesn't appear possible, this class doesn't lend itself to be extended.

Option 3:
Copy DeploymentFilter and create my own version. This is not a very desireable option, will be hard to maintain between releases of jboss.

How does JBoss suggest that we add "excludes" the URLDeploymentScanner?

Thanks
