enterprise/compapp/projectjbi needs to be a friend of the j2eeserver to access some private API to interact with the appserver (See #84530). However, j2eeserver already exposes a public API, and the NetBeans module system doesn't allow public and friend API at once, currently an implementation dependency is used in enterprise/compapp/projectjbi. It would be nice if this implementation dependency be removed. http://enterprise.netbeans.org/source/browse/enterprise/compapp/projectjbi/antsrc/org/netbeans/modules/compapp/projects/jbi/anttasks/DeployServiceAssembly.java?r1=1.3&r2=1.4 lists the private API access. #63997 has a solution to this kind of problem. Alternatively, we could make some private API in j2eeserver public.
