I just tested building a webapp with a dependency on a jar from the repo, and it was included in WEB-INF/lib. When I copied the jar into a lib/ directory and included it as a system scoped dependency, I can see it's on the classpath for compilation, but it doesn't get packaged in the war. That sounds like a bug to me. If you'd like to [search JIRA and] report it, I'll comment and attach my example. Further evidence that system scope is a bad idea. :) -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
