Hi!

What you want to acheive is not J2EE. J2EE leaves you with
the option that you have got to work.

hi,
let me add more info to make my point clear
I have following components at the same level directly
in my ear file
1. allejbs.jar  file (containing all ejbs)
2. war file (cotaining web components)
3.  common.jar (required by ejb jar and war files)
What currently I am doing is that I am setting the
following entry in
manifest file of  allejbs.jar and war file
Class-Path:  common.jar

But What I want is that I want to specify this at the ear
file's  manifest
so that I dont have to individually give this entry.  But
this is not
working.
Harpreet this I think doent have to do anything about
the scope you are
talking about on WAS I will tell you later that due to
this ( I am ofcourse
using module level visibility). I am getting another
problem.

Hi
check out the J2EE spec.............i am referring to
j2ee-1_4 proposed
final draft section 8.2
************************
The following example illustrates a simple use of the
bundled optional
package mechanism to reference a library of utility
classes that are shared
between enterprise beans in two separate ejb-jar files.
app1.ear:
META-INF/application.xml
ejb1.jar Class-Path: util.jar
ejb2.jar Class-Path: util.jar
util.jar
************************
looks like u need to specify them separately each
time!!!!
hope this helps

hi,

I am having some common files in jar file(say common.jar)
used by ejb and
web module.
If I try to set the classpath attribute in ear file
manifest as
1. Class-Path:  common.jar

This doesnt work (doesnt pick the classes).

How ever if I individually   put the entry 1 in manifest
files of ejb
modules and  webmodules, then it doesnt give the error.
But I want to use the first method .  Is there anything
wrong.
I am using WAS 4.0.1 for multiplatform.
