      We use Orbacus as our CORBA implementation, and in our application we wish to use CORBA classes only from the orbacus module, and not the JDK/WildFly bundled CORBA.

      In the jboss-deployment-structure.xml file of our ear file, we have the following:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <jboss-deployment-structure>
          <ear-subdeployments-isolated>false</ear-subdeployments-isolated>
          <deployment>
              <exclusions>
                  <module name="javax.orb.api" />
                  <module name="org.omg.api" />
              </exclusions>
              <dependencies>
                  <module name="com.ooc.orbacus" export="true"/>
                  <module name="org.apache.commons.logging" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.apache.commons.collections" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.apache.log4j" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.dom4j" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.jdom" export="true" />
                  <module name="javax.faces.api" slot="mojarra-2.1.23" export="true"/>
                  <module name="com.sun.jsf-impl" slot="mojarra-2.1.23" export="true"/>
                  <module name="org.jboss.ejb-client" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.jboss.remote-naming" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.jboss.remoting3" export="true" />
                  <module name="org.apache.xerces" />
                  <!-- dependency for richfaces -->
                  <module name="com.google.guava" slot="11.0.2" export="true"/>
              </dependencies>
          </deployment>
      ...
      

      However, despite excluding the javax.orb.api module, I can see that org.omg.PortableServer.Servant is loaded from that module instead of being loaded from our com.ooc.orbacus module. This causes our application to fail.

      Debugging through the jboss module loader, I can see that it considers both javax.orb.api and com.ooc.orbacus as prodivers of the org/omg/PortableServer path. I am not sure why javax.orb.api is being considered when it has been excluded in the deployment descriptor for the application.
