Thanks for the reply Wayne. I added the <addClasspath> line to my ear pom
but it made no difference. Both the webapp and the EAR have classpath
entries in their manifest file but projects in the webapp still cannot
find the resources in the EAR. Back to my original structure:
projectEAR
|--- moduleA.jar
|--- moduleB.jar
|--- JSPs.war
|--- WEB-INF
|--- lib
|--- moduleC.jar
|--- moduleD.jar
We know that moduleC is dependent on moduleA, but since A is not in the
webapp manifest, C cannot find A even though A is in the EAR manifest. Is
this assumption correct?
So using Maven, I put a dependency with a compile scope, moduleA will be
in the webapp manifest but its jar will also be included in the webapp. So
really I just want the classpath entry without including the jar in the
webapp. Is there a way to do this?
Hopefully someone knows how to do this. Thanks again.

Re: [M2] Adding jars to classpath in war manifest
This is what I'm using rather successfully...
in the webapp/pom.xml
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
in the ear/pom.xml
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Give this a try, Mang, and let us know...
