Well the way it works is that every tag which is in the XMLMerger.xml
file will be merged. If a tag does not appear, it will be appended within
one of the "to be merged" tags.
Using this
<file name="ejb-jar.xml">
<ejb-jar>
<description/>
<display-name/>
<enterprise-beans/>
<relationships/>
<assembly-descriptor/>
</ejb-jar>
</file>
for the ejb-jar will cause the contents of the ejb-jar/description,
ejb-jar/display-name, ejb-jar/enterprise-beans, etc to be appended
from one ejb jar to the next.
Likewise for jboss,
<file name="jboss.xml">
<jboss>
<enterprise-beans/>
<resource-managers/>
</jboss>
</file>
causes the contents of ejb-jar/enterprise-beans and
ejb-jar/resource-managers from one ejb jar to be appended to the next

Well I did do this with the attribute merge="false".
<jbosscmp-jdbc>
<defaults merge="false">
<datasource>java:/portalDS</datasource>
<datasource-mapping>PostgreSQL 7.2</datasource-mapping>
<create-table>false</create-table>
<remove-table>false</remove-table>
</defaults>
Basically, this tells the program not to merge the contents but to use
those explicity listed, so any defaults will be ignored from the DDs
to be merged.

The whole project is GPL.
Does this do what you want it to?
Cheers,
Colin

Hi Colin,
I haven't test it yet (had some meeting first), sorry.
But i did take a look at the openportal/ejb/src/xml/XMLMerger.xml
already.
I like the concept, but some questions though:
1) XMLMerger.xml
-a) tag <enterprise-beans>: in my original Dep. Descripter there's an
entity bean with no resource refs (refs to Datasources e.g.). Is it
possible to put the <resource-ref> tags somewhere in de XMLMerger.xml so
that they get merged with the earlier <entity>-info. Here's an example:
======================================================
Original ejb-jar.xml (extraction):
...
<entity >
<display-name>AuthenticationMethodEJB</display-name>
<ejb-name>sfc/AuthenticationMethodEb</ejb-name>
<local-home>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationM
ethodEbLocalHome</local-home>
<local>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationMethod
EbLocal</local>
<ejb-class>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationMe
thodEbBMP</ejb-class>
<persistence-type>Bean</persistence-type>
<prim-key-class>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.Authenticat
ionMethodEbPK</prim-key-class>
<reentrant>False</reentrant>
</entity>
...
=======================================================
XMLMerger.xml (somewhere in this file. There things i like to merge for
that particular entity bean or for all entity beans ...)
<XMLMerger>
<file name="ejb-jar.xml">
<ejb-jar>
<enterprise-beans>
<entity>
<ejb-name>sfc/AuthenticationMethodEb</ejb-name>
<!-- #################################################
-->
<!-- Things to merge ... -->
<resource-ref >
<res-ref-name>jdbc/mySQL</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
<!-- #################################################
-->
</entity>
</file>
</ejb-jar>
=========================================================
RESULT:
...
<entity >
<display-name>AuthenticationMethodEJB</display-name>
<ejb-name>sfc/AuthenticationMethodEb</ejb-name>
<local-home>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationM
ethodEbLocalHome</local-home>
<local>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationMethod
EbLocal</local>
<ejb-class>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.AuthenticationMe
thodEbBMP</ejb-class>
<persistence-type>Bean</persistence-type>
<prim-key-class>be.schaubroeck.prj.sfc.ejb.aa.authentication.Authenticat
ionMethodEbPK</prim-key-class>
<reentrant>False</reentrant>
<!-- ################################################# -->
<resource-ref >
<res-ref-name>jdbc/mySQL</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
<!-- ################################################# -->
</entity>
...
=========================================================
-b) Same question for the jboss.xml.
-c) what about 'overriding' tags ?
2) what 'license agreement' is there on your plugin ?
thanks again !
