Hi Armin,
Please find below "howto" to deploy ojb as an ear file.
Here is an example of the .ear package structure. It is redeployable
without having to restart Jboss.
/ejb.jar/
...EJBs
...META-INF/
......ejb-jar.xml
......jboss.xml
......MANIFEST.MF
/web-app.war/
...JSP
...WEB-INF/
......web.xml
/META-INF/
...application.xml
/ojb.jar
/[ojb required runtime jar]
/OJB.properties
/repository.dtd
/respository_internal.xml
/repository.xml
/repository_database1.xml
/repository_app1.xml
/repository_database2.xml
/repository_app2.xml
There are two approaches to use OJB api in the ejb.jar file.
1. To create a Manifest.mf file with classpath attribute that include
all the runtime jar required by OJB (Very important to include all
required jar). The sample below works fine.
Class-Path: db-ojb-1.0.rc6.jar antlr-2.7.3.jar commons-beanutils.jar
commons-collections.jar commons-dbcp-1.1.jar commons-lang-2.0.jar
commons-logging.jar commons-pool-1.1.jar
jakarta-regexp-1.3.jar
Note: If you to include the jar file under a directory of the ear file,
says /lib/db-ojb-1.0.rc6.jar and etc. At the classpath attribute it will
be something like;
Class-Path: ./lib/db-ojb-1.0.rc6.jar and etc (The "." in front is
important)
2. To add the required jar file as a "java" element in the
application.xml file.
<module>
<java>antlr-2.7.3.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-beanutils.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-collections.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-dbcp-1.1.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-lang-2.0.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-logging.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>commons-pool-1.1.jar</java>
</module>
<module>
<java>db-ojb-1.0.rc6.jar</java>
</module>
Note: To use this approach, all the library had to be in the root of the
ear.
(This was tested on Jboss 3.2.3)

Stephen
