Description

The broker-plugins is currently having only one module (DiagnosticExchange and TestExchange). We should have a directory for each module building as a separate jar. This would allow adding a new module to be just a matter of creating a new directory and adding it to the build system, We should move the content of the src directory to its own plugin directory and adjust the build system accordingly. Suggested layout:

broker-plugins
---> build.xml
---> extras (OSGI-Plugin)
---> my_plugin1 (OSGI-Plugin)
---> my_plugin2 (OSGI-Plugin)
.... etc

Please perform the following: on java/broker-plugins folder:

• delete the src folder and untar the tarball attached
• remove the build.xml and add the attached build.xml
• apply QPID-2502 to fix the PluginManager.java issue with security tracker
• apply QPID-2513
• apply QPID-2531 to update the build.deps and main build.xml
