Issue

From EAP6, global module is available but what is it and when it needs?

Resolution

A global module is a module that JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 provides as a dependency to every application. In other words, all application can be accessible to the library which is loaded as a global module Therefore, if it is needed to use a library from all applications, adding global module is a good way without modifying applications itself.

The way to add global module :

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:ee:1.0" >            
  <global-modules>
    <module name="org.javassist" slot="main" />            
  </global-modules> 
</subsystem>
