<ejbjar> should also produce EJB client files

           Summary: <ejbjar> should also produce EJB client files
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Optional Tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: karsten.silz@epost.de


I use the <ejbjar> task to JAR EJBs.  It works well.  What I also do is <jar> up
the remote and home interfaces and related classes (like exception classes and
data transfer classes) in a separate JAR for clients of these EJBs.  They don't
get the "full" EJB JAR because I don't want the clients to get the EJB
implementations.

Now since the <ejbjar> already parses the EJBs and finds out through bcel (sp?)
which classes are needed, I suggest that the <ejbjar> could optionally produce
an EJB client JAR with all the files that are needed just by EJB clients. 
Essentially, this could be the "full EJB JAR" minus the bean implementation
classes and the classes that are only needed by the bean implementation.
