I guess I am looking at things more from a "delivery date" perspective
than a "developer" perspective. I need to ship something as part of one
of our client/server (both parts run by the customer companies) in the
next few months. My needs are actually pretty simple (static web pages,
servlets, JSP, JSF).
I am trying to avoid going with something like Jetty and management is
against anything that requires an OEM license or royalties. So, am just
trying to wrap my head around embedded-glassfish so I can move forward
with it rather than the other possibilities.

Prelude
Joey,
We decided to birth embedded in a static stable GlassFish environment.
We branched off of the GlassFish Prelude build. In the near future we
will bring all the embedded code back into the "trunk" which is the main
code development line for GlassFish V3.

trunk"; how does that related to the Embedded Glassfish project?

Prelude
Hi Joey,
We are working on providing the ability to add multiple listeners,
SSL config etc in the glassfish trunk. For details look at
http://fisheye4.atlassian.com/browse/glassfish-svn/trunk/v3/web/web-embe
d/api/src/main/java/org/glassfish/web/embed
This is work in progress, so it would be good to get your input if it
meets your needs or if you would like to see any changes.
Thanks
- Rajiv

Sorry for not being more involved - got blind sided by management and am

I agree, that EmbeddedInfo needs to be more complete. My original
impression when I started looking at Embedded Glassfish was that it
would allow me to completely define a configuration via the API - so I
would not need static configuration files.
Besides multiple listeners per server, I also need to configure SSL for
one of my listeners.
Right now, I hack it all by a combination of modified the text of a
template domain.xml file and the Embedded API that does exist.

Thanks for the feedbacks.

EmbeddedInfo is not generic enough, it asks for http ports but what
about if you need to add more listener, or even what about if you don't
want to open any port (like an embedded EJB Container).
I think the intent was to make it simple for typical use cases. People
can use CommandExecutor for more complicated configuration changes.
We need one consistent way of defining 0 to many http listeners and
ports.
Do you have a proposal for EmbeddedInfo? We can adjust it.
EmbeddedDeployer is also not generic enough, the scatteredWar concept
needs to be extended to an ScatteredArchive concept (which would map to
jar, war, rar and maybe even ear) and the deployScattered() methods need
to use that ScatteredArchive as a parameter. In fact, I am not sure why
we need a deployScattered() method all together, I think deploy() should
be enough and we should be smart enough to figure out what was passed to
us.
Agreed. We should use ScatteredArchive and deploy method if possible.
EmbeddedMain talks about using the uber jar, it should in fact be moved
into the glassfish.jar so that people can do the same thing using a
normal distribution (as they can already do today for most of the
features of that class, today I can do java -jar glassfish.jar foo.war).
There is no glassfish.jar in this case. Are you asking for supporting
"java -jar glassfish.jar foo.war" use case also? Please note that for
Prelude, we are not supporting the implanted use case yet. When we
support "implanted" we can certainly use glassfish.jar.
Server : why do we return the cataline Engine object ? I suppose this
would be removed once we integrate the new web container embedded APIs,
right ? If that's the case, we should not have here.
This is a bug. Byron/Jennifer: Could you please remove this?
So as a conclusion, this APIs is very targeted to war file deployment,
and we cannot hope to be able to extend it to support full V3 styles of
deployment and maintain backward compatibility.
Either we spend the time to make it right for embedded release or we
declare it as a non stable (with knowledge that it will extensively
change for v3 release).
Lets see what can be done. This is not throw away work.

Prelude we focused on basics first such as start/stop, configuration

the APIs.

let us know.
Thanks much.
