I am excluding different jar files for different reasons. One jar file i have just contains the dojo javascript library. I just put all the js files in the META-INF/resources/dojo-1.7.1 folder of the jar file, deploy that in WEB-INF/lib and i can then access all the js files from my webapp. I found in some tomee environments on windows xp, when the webapp would startup it would error when trying to scan that file, so i exclude it since it contains no managed beans.
Another jar file in my WEB-INF/lib contains a META-INF/persistence.xml file but I don't want tomee to create a persistence context using that file. I have another persistence.xml file in my webapp that i use which references that jar file, so I configure tomee to exclude scanning that jar file so i don't end up with duplicate persistence units. There might be a better (proper) way of dealing with this issue but excluding it works for me. -- View this message in context: http://openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/war-packaged-exclusions-list-tp4656366p4656404.html Sent from the OpenEJB User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
