Fred, thanks for response.
About 1st issue, I need to have control of the EAR name in my real
project because it contains EJBs that are consumed by other clients and they
lookup for the EJBs using a name like <EarName>/<EJBName>/Remote and this
EarName is known by the clients. So when I bulid my application, the EAR
must be deployed with the same name the clients use to lookup EJBs. As I
can't do it from M2E, the workaround I'm doing is "way too around", I
mean... at the moment, I'm running Maven CLI to make it work.
I really don't know much about wtp implementation, but as an user
perspective, I think wtp uses the project name as the final ear name.
So, if it is true, I don't know if it would solve (and if it solves, I don't
know if it would be the best solution), but maybe if M2E used
${project.build.finalName} instead of using artifactId to name the project
(from the "New Maven Project" or the "Import Existing Maven Project"
feature) it would achieve the goal.
About 2nd issue, I opened a JIRA issue [1] with a basic description that
just points to this thread. Thought it would be better than duplicating
information there. (but while I'm writing right now I've just seen that you
already edited the JIRA issue putting all information there hehe)
