Hi, Thanks for the answers. A JAR file will do the job, but the client is insisting on WAR file. Is it absolutely not possible to deploy WAR file on James. I could not find any article in the web stating authoritatively on this issue that WAR file cannot be used for deployment in James. So can I take it that WAR file deployment is not feasible in James and a SAR file is the only option left. Thanks in advance rajesh
"Seib, Broc" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:(1) Why must you create a WAR file? What's wrong with a plain JAR file? James doesn't take WAR files. Is this merely a build issue of creating an additional JAR file? (2) Understanding the usage of the mailetpackage and matcherpackage blocks in the config: These merely allow you to use "shorthand" in your mailet blocks in the config file. E.g., the block just says "Foo", rather than "com.domain.x.Foo". The mailet/matcherpackage blocks just says what namespace(s) to try when attempting to load the class. When you say: WEB-INF.Classes.com.scb.octopus.mailets This is a misunderstanding of how it works. It has nothing to do with the physical location of the class, and only to do with locating the class in a java package/namespace. (3) Are you writing a matcher or a mailet? Don't add your package to the wrong block in the config.
