Tim Reilly commented on MNG-3269:
---------------------------------
I wanted to check with the team I work with about this. They basically said
they are not against this, but they would like to know more about how this
change would be implemented before 'giving a thumbs up' at least for our team
here.
On a different but potentially related noete: I can say that we ran into a
seemly unresolvable issue a few months ago. We build (or at least tried to
build) a properties file into the ear's "resource" directory. In the Ant world
this worked fine for them, but when we moved to Maven we could not figure out
how to get the property file in the ear referenced in the war's manifest
class-path (and still use the add classpath feature of the mwar plugin.)
Let us know what the change might look like and I'll run it by the various team
members here to see what they think.
Thank you

> When trying to package a j2ee project's ejb-client artifact in the ear /lib
> directory the war plugin's optional attribute is ignored if building from the
> parent app project. If you build from the parent project you get the
> ejb-client packaged in the web-inf/lib directory. If you build the ejb, war,
> and ear independently you get the ejb-client packaged in the ear /lib
> directory. It seems when run from the parent project the dependency/artifact
> doesn't have the optional attribute set.
> Perhaps this is b/c the artifact is a project artifact that was attached from
> the ejb plugin it is not resolved as optional when the dependency is resolved
> from the war project.
> Attaching Geronimo's mytime sample with modifications to reproduce the
> behavior.
