Configuring Your Application’s Components
To configure a component, you choose it from the main window by clicking the appropriate link.
This causes the deployment tool to display the configuration window for the component. As you can
see in “Figure 3-4”, this is a tabbed window that contains one or more panes, which you use to
configure specific aspects of the component. The configuration window also contains a Quick Config
pane, which contains elements of the component that you must configure for the application to be
deployable. “Figure 3-4” shows the Quick Config pane of the CatalogEJB module. It indicates that
the JBoss resource references must be configured. The JBoss resource references also appear in the
JNDI Resource Refs pane. However, you need to configure them in only one of the two panes.

Note: For applications with many components, you may want to configure the Quick Config pages
of the invalid components and save the application. Then you can configure each component further
in a piecemeal fashion.
Some settings apply to an entire module, for example, security roles. In addition, some module settings
serve as defaults for settings of individual components in the module. “Figure 3-5” shows some of
the module settings of the CustomerJAR module of the
petstore.ear application. Configuring
modules settings can help to speed up the configuration of a module. See “Configure Module-Wide
Settings” (page 25) for an example.
