Description _ rkubacki 2005-04-26 14:03:57 UTC 
Zipped sample projects do not need to be on classpath. They can be isolated and
located with InstalledFileLocator. This can reduce the size of module JAR and
thus virtual size of process.

Currently I see following zips in blueprints module:
J2EEClientforDocOrientedService.zip
SchemaWebService.zip
StringWebService.zip
client-validators.zip
command-submissions.zip
serverside-validators.zip
swing-client.zip
tabbed-view.zip

And also this one in appserver plugin:
pointbasescripts.zip
Comment 1 Yutaka Yoshida 2005-09-20 19:02:26 UTC 
There're pros and cons in embedding/separating zip files.
Yes, the size is one point, but including them gives us
much better managament for the version, which is also
suggested by the current "non-scrambled file" policy.
Anyway, we need to integrate another version of solutions
catalog for JavaEE5, we will consider the best way to
resolve this issue.
Comment 2 _ rkubacki 2005-12-12 17:23:50 UTC 
I do not understant to your comment about versioning. Can you be more specific
about possible cons here so that we can find some solution?
Comment 3 Petr Jiricka 2006-08-16 14:13:21 UTC 
Hi Yuta or Nitya, any update on this issue? There is now the Java EE 5 catalog,
is there any difference in how it's now done?
Comment 4 Yutaka Yoshida 2006-09-07 03:40:57 UTC 
After the long discussion in the group, we decided
to include zip files in the module mainly because
of considering the case of the update center.
How can we manage the consistency between the main
module and associated zip files when there are
multiple versions of the modules?  Is there any other
modules which do this?
Comment 5 Petr Jiricka 2006-09-08 09:17:18 UTC 
Ok, marking as WONTFIX.

BTW, issue 80836 is somewhat related - we should not have duplicated or
components in the code.
Comment 6 Yutaka Yoshida 2006-09-08 19:53:37 UTC 
reopen - We are again investigating the best way to do this.
not in 5.5, most likely in the next release.
Comment 7 Nitya Doraisamy 2007-07-27 10:35:32 UTC 
BluePrints module has been moved to the Update Center and this is the last iteration of 
the module.
Don't think it is worth spending time on investigation and fixes at this point. Closing.

Reopen if you think this needs to be absolutely resolved.
