Hi Andy,
Thanks a lot for the information. I was out of office and didn't have any
time to try it, but it looks like this is what I need. I was unaware of the
'exclusions' possibility for the dependencies.
The 'classloader issues' I meant aren't perhaps problems. I must have
expressed myself wrongly. I simply need to load some classes needed by WAR
the EAR level. Despite WAS classloaders being apparently fine, loading them
in both places doesn't always work althought with PARENT_LAST you would
expect the classes in one classloader not to bleed through to the other one.
I have it sorted out, but needed to battle a bit particularly with some JSF
dependencies. Ended up having to remove them from WAR and load them on the
EAR level (???).
Thanks a lot for your help and regards
Maciej

Hi Maciej,
I also had this problem, and it took a while to sort out. Here are the
ways I found ...
I've managed to get something into the Manifest.mf Class-Path without it
appearing in the WEB-INF/lib in M2 by placing dependencies as follows in
the war packaging pom ...
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ubs.datait.rkyc.cim.j2eeclient</groupId>
<artifactId>cim-j2eeclient</artifactId>
<version>${rkyc-cim-version}</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<artifactId>cim-j2eeclient</artifactId>
<groupId>com.ubs.datait.rkyc.cim.j2eeclient</groupId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
And then your war plugin configuration should be
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0</version>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
You could also look to use add a classpath and then explicitly exclude
jars with the <excludes>WEB-INF/lib/*.jar</excludes> construct within
the war configuration
The <excludes> tag will only exclude JARs in your workspace directory.
It does not prevent the JARs specified by dependencies to be added to
the lib directory. To do so add a scope tag with the value "provided" to
the dependency:
Alternatively, if you know exactly what you want the manifest class path
to look like you could also specify a special manifest.mf in the
<manifest> tag:
<manifestFile>${basedir}/WebContent/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>
Or if you have a manifest file in the standard location
(src/main/webapp/META-INF/) Maven will use that.
If you want Maven to create the manifest, simply delete the manifest in
the standard location.
Hopefully you can use one of these solutions. BTW I am using WAS 6 and
am not aware of classloader problems - what problems are you referring
to ?
Rgds
Andy

Subject: Scope and manifest class path with M2
Hi,
I am building a WAR file and I need M2 to put a jar in the manifest
class path, but not include it under WEB-INF/lib (this is due to the
classloader confiuration issues on WAS6).
Seems like a simple task, but is it possible? When I use scope
'provided' - it skips the class path entry in the maniftest. Any other
scope will cause the jar to end up in WEB-INF/lib
Regards
Maciej Mastalarczuk
