Is there a way to get around having to add commons-fileupload and commons-io to
WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/ at all? I tried adding a dependency to the deployment
plan
<dep:dependencies>
<dep:dependency>
<dep:groupId>commons-fileupload</dep:groupId>
<dep:artifactId>commons-fileupload</dep:artifactId>
<dep:version>1.1.1</dep:version>
<dep:type>jar</dep:type>
</dep:dependency>
<dep:dependency>
<dep:groupId>commons-io</dep:groupId>
<dep:artifactId>commons-io</dep:artifactId>
<dep:version>1.2</dep:version>
<dep:type>jar</dep:type>
</dep:dependency>
</dep:dependencies>
to use the jars that are already on the server (without any jars in
WebContent/WEB-INF/lib/) but that resulted in the same
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException
Should that approach work, or should the WAR or EAR always be self-contained
regarding its dependencies?
You have both hidden-classes and the commons dependencies in your deployment
plan? I would expect this to work.
you are right - it works. It never occurred to me to actually try
setting the dependency and also hiding the packages (the way I read the
docs, the <hidden-classes> are for solving issues between different
versions of the same library - and since I specifically wanted to use
the library provided by geronimo, it didn't occur to me to try).
Thank you very much, this helps me a lot to keep the EAR/WAR small and
not have to include jars that I know are already installed on the server.
