Mike,

We have a couple of applications deployed as *true* War. All WebObjects frameworks go inside WEB-INF/lib folder as Jars. The application goes as Jar on the same folder. The application Jar must be an "NSJarBundle". It means the Jar must have a Resources folder with a valid Info.plist inside.

We don't need to add the WOCLASSPATH to the web.xml file because we are using true War instead of SSDD. We use a static web.xml. The WOServletAdaptor points to ERXServletAdaptor and the WOJarBundle option is set to true. All projects are built with Maven and we don't have to change a thing after the build process.

On WO 5.3, most File-based methods of NSBundle and NSPathUtilities are deprecated. There are URL-based replacements for each of then. Please, anyone correct me if I am wrong. I haven’t had the opportunity to look at the WO 5.4 API.

Cheers,

Henrique

PS.: There is one bug on NSPathUtilities and another one on NSBundle preventing the deployment of true Wars on Windows machines. Again, I don't know about WO 5.4.

Has anyone looked into exactly what the problem is with deploying a war with framework embedding? It APPEARS that you either have an exploded war (SSDD) and embedding works fine, or you have a war file and you have to install WO frameworks outside of the war, but you can't have both? I'm assuming it's that NSBundle must be File-based rather than URL-based, so it can't load embedded frameworks from inside a war because it's expecting to be able to generate File references? Before I go exploring this, though, I thought I'd see if anyone else has already done the legwork for explaining it ...
