- -A jsr88 plugin needs to be wrapped in a module with an entry in the -/J2EE/DeploymentPlugins folder in the default filesystem, so the server -registry can pick it up.

In order to do it, plugin must implement the -{@link org.netbeans.modules.j2ee.deployment.plugins.spi.J2eePlatformImpl} -interface and register it via the -{@link org.netbeans.modules.j2ee.deployment.plugins.spi.J2eePlatformFactory} -whose instance must be registered in the module -layer file. - -Plugin may also provide some additional functionality outside the -deployment spec through use of the -api/spi classes.
