Hi all,
I am trying to build an ear archive containing several webapps. These
webapps share a number of jar files. I would like the jar files to be
included in the ear but not within each of the war archives.
I would also like to keep the dependencies within the POMs of each war
archive to allow me build the wars separately, and with minimal modification
of these files, and to allow me to use the eclipse pluggin to build a
classpath.
I have tried to use :
...
<properties>
<ear.bundle>true</ear.bundle>
<war.bundle>false</war.bundle>
</properties>
...
within the dependencies of each war file but this does not seem to have any
effect. The jar files still find their way into the WEB-INF/lib directory. I
suppose there is something here that I havent understood...
There isn't much in the way of documentation for building complex ear
configurations so any information is very welcome !
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Chris White
