This is the part I haven't figured out yet. Reading the docs on pear
files, it appears it is necessary to go through an installation
process. I was really hoping to be able to just use a pear file as it
comes from nexus, no unpacking, no modification--just read-only
reference. In other words, just point to the pear file (unzipped) in my
.m2/repository directory from an AAE descriptor, with no installation
process.
Sorry, I meant
just point to the pear file (still zipped) in my .m2/repository
directory from an AAE descriptor, with no installation process.
Am I dreaming, or is there some way I could make that happen? By
managing classpath and datapath, somehow?
Or should I proceed directly to OSGI, do not pass pear, do not collect
$200? :-)
