let's say I have this structure
myentapp.ear
-- ejb1.jar
-- ejb2.jar
-- mywebapp.war
-- commonutils.jar
In this scenario I want "ejb1", "ejb2" and "mywebapp" to share the classes
in commonutils.jar so that I don't have to replicate the .class files into
the separate modules.
Is there a predefined J2EE way of doing this?
if not:
What I had in mind was to have the ejb1 and ejb2 -MANIFEST.MF use the
ClassPath:commonutils.jar
but what do I do for the war file?
