> nativelib are resiyrces that are tagged in the following way in a jnlp file:
> <resources os="Windows">
>   <nativelib href="thedll.jar"/>
> </resources>
> To support nativelib at the same level of simplicity that the usual 
> dependencies are supported requires to:
> - automatically identify them from 
> - automatically wrap .dll .so files in jar files
> Q: what about jar files that are architecture dependent?
> In maven 1 it was possible to attach some properties to the dependencies. But 
> we cannot use that anymore.
> We could
> 1- mark the dependencies in the pom using the correct <type> in the pom. E.g. 
> <type>dll</type>
> 2- make the plugin automatically wrap the native dependency inside a jar.
> 3- automatically fill up the <nativelib> elements using some sort of filter 
> mecanism
> <resources os="Windows">
>   $allDependencies.filter("dll")
> </resources>
> ??
> $dependencies would implicitly map to $allDependencies.filter("jar") for 
> backward compatibility.
> Better: the filter() argument might be a JDK 1.4 regex matching a dependency 
> notation. That way we solve the architecture  issue (we can match names, 
> types, etc..)
> That's just one idea. We can perhaps do better? Let me know how you see it.
