Hi all,
It turns out it was an issue with transitive dependency. I changed the scope of compile only for an artifact which caused all the other jars to stop being included in the war distribution WEB-INF/lib. Now I have an issue with package an EAR in a different pom file which uses <packaging>ear</packaging>. I get a list of 75 jars, I changed the scope of all dependencies in this pom file to compile and I still get all the jars as part of the ear distribution. What could be wrong ? Thanks, -Guillaume Jeudy ________________________________ From: Jeudy, Guillaume Sent: January 24, 2008 4:49 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: maven 2 war packaging - adds unwanted jars in WEB-INF/lib Hi all, I get a list of jars that are added to my war without me specifying it anywhere in my pom.xml as a dependency. Is it because of the dependency transitivity feature ? My pom.xml uses: <packaging>war</packaging> some jars are added in WEB-INF/lib inside the war file even though they are not listed anywhere in dependencies: here are some of them: [DEBUG] adding entry ant-1.6.5.jar [DEBUG] adding entry ant-junit-1.6.5.jar [DEBUG] adding entry ant-launcher-1.6.5.jar [DEBUG] adding entry antlr-2.7.5.jar [DEBUG] adding entry asm-2.2.jar I could manually exclude them using <warSourceExcludes>filelist</warSourceExcludes> in the war plugin config but I'd rather understand what is causing this ? I'm using Maven 2.0.8.
