Overview

This new version is used in Seam 2.0, and the codebase is the JBoss AS 5.x tree (sort of... it's a little more complex than that).

• JBoss Embedded AS - The newest incarnation : http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JBossEmbeddedAS
  This uses many new modules:
  • New 'bootstrap' module which will be the launcher for both JBoss AS and JBoss Embedded. See JBoss - Reloaded
  • New 'shrink wrap' virtual archive module.
  • These modules are used in conjunction with an unmodified build of JBoss AS 6.x. (currently JBoss AS 6.0.0 M1)
• Embedded JBoss - The branch of pre-JBoss 5.x with some hacks to make it work.
• Embeddable EJB3 - The oldest incarnation, used in the Seam 1.x distributions.
