In my current project, they use ant and pack all the jars inside the ejb-jar.jar. Now, they are thinking of migrating to maven from ant, but still want to pack the jars inside ejb-jar.jar.
Is there anyway to do this without exploding the dependencies into my jar. Other way is to keep the jars in ear lib directory. But I don't want to do this because these jars are being used only by one ejb project and other ejb and web modules doesn't need these jars.
