javaee.jar issues
I'm having an issue with some things I got from Sun and I believe it might
have been encountered by people here.
I downloaded the Linux JavaEE SDK from [1] . I did this in order to have
javaee.jar available as an internal dependency.
Upon examination of this jar, I noticed a second MANIFEST.MF in the root of
the jar (!) that references jxr and jax rpc elements.
This issue concerns me in a couple of ways. First, it makes me think that
Java's release process isn't so hot. Then I start to wonder if my belief
that javaee.jar has no dependencies is accurate. When I went looking for a
place to ask about this, I discovered that there doesn't appear to be a good
one.
Has anyone else seen this or do I have some sort of three-headed alien baby
version of javaee.jar?
Is there a place to report this that I didn't find?
I noted that another version, apparently from the windows install, doesn't
seem to have this (based on information from a colleague). Can someone
verify that for me?
Thanks for any insights,
Mykel

Thankfully the borked jar does not appear to be in the public repo... only
in sun's maven 1 repo

I think you're right (that it's not the same issue), but is that in the
public repo anywhere (i.e. repo1.maven.org/maven2) ? If so, do you know the
signature of it?

I know there's a borked javaee.jar in the sub maven repository... it's
completely useless and is just a stub for compiling... no running unit tests
with it as they will all fail to class-load.
However, I don't think that this is the broked jar you have

Upon re-reading, I see that I didn't clearly indicate that at all and that
my English isn't so hot today.
But I'd be very interested in how to report such a thing if anyone knows the
correct method.

I completely agree w/Stephen. The Glassfish mailing list is a good
place to report this bug.

After posting this to the Glassfish list, I was redirected to the Glassfish
dev list where my issue was promptly ignored.
Next step is probably to enter an issue for it on the Glassfish site and see
if someone picks that up.

I haven't but that does sound like a good plan. I'll give it a try.

have you tried the glassfish mailing list? If this was glassfish 3 I'd say
email sahoo directly too... but i'm not sure if v2 is his bag

As my original post indicated, I couldn't find a place to do so.
If you happen to know how to contact them regarding this sort of matter, I'd
love that have that information and I'll immediately start the contact
process.

if there is a duplicate manifest.mf on javaee.jar from their distro
did you contact sun on this issue and what was the response?
