To configure a custom hornetq interceptor, it requires the interceptors be a dependency of the org.jboss.as.messaging module.  When a cumulative patch or one off patch is applied updating the module, it will revert the changes and require modification of the .overlays ... module.xml.

We should add a dependency in org.jboss.as.messaging module to depend on an optional dependency such as org.hornetq.interceptors.  The user could then create $JBOSS_HOME/modules/org/hornetq/interceptors/module.xml


<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="org.jboss.as.messaging">
...
    <dependencies>
...
        <module name="org.hornetq.interceptors" optional="true"/>
...

The $JBOSS_HOME/modules/org/hornetq/interceptors/module.xml would look something like this: 

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="org.hornetq.interceptors">

    <resources>
        <resource-root path="custom-hornetq-interceptor.jar"/>
    </resources>

    <dependencies>
        <module name="javax.api"/>
        <module name="javax.jms.api"/>
        <module name="javax.transaction.api"/>
        <module name="org.hornetq"/>
    </dependencies>
</module>
