The plugin is trying to start JBoss incorrectly though. I'm on MacOS X, so JBoss is started with run.sh. However, it appears from the Cactus source that it always uses run.bat to start JBoss:
integration/ant/src/scripts/j2ee13/build-tests-jboss3x.xml
integration/ant/src/java/org/apache/cactus/integration/ant/container/ jboss/JBoss3xContainer.java
Is it possible to redefine the "program.name" value in a properties file, or do I need to rebuild the plugin with the run.sh value instead?
Thanks, Mark

Hi Vincent,
Sorry for the confusion, I'm pretty new to this part of the world. So I took your suggestions and moved my structure around, and it now looks like this:
/ +-root/ +-project.xml +-project.properties +-maven.xml +-EJB/ +-project.xml +-project.properties +-maven.xml +-src/ +-java/ | +-mycp/ | +-MyBean.java +-test-cactus/ +-mycp/ +-test/ +-MyBeanTest.java +-EAR/ +-project.xml +-project.properties +-maven.xml
However, when I run the cactus:test-ear goal, in the EJB directory, I still have the same class not found errors. Looking at what does happen, I have this target directory structure:
+EJB/target/ +-classes/ | +-META-INF/ | | +-ejb-jar.xml | | +-jboss.xml | | +-jbosscmp-jdbc.xml | +-mycp/ | +-My*.class (all classes related to the Bean) +-test-cactus-classes/ +-test-cactus-reports/ +-jboss3x/ +-xdoclet/ +-ejbdoclet/ +-META-INF/ | +-ejb-jar.xml | +-jboss.xml | +-jbosscmp-jdbc.xml +-mycp/ +-My*.java (all xdoclet generated classes from the Bean source)
So it is running xdoclet and generating the .java files, and then compiling them to the target/classes directory. But that's not being added to the classpath for compiling the test-cactus/**/*Test.java files and that step is failing.
I printed out the classpath variables at the compile:cactus and they are all still empty: ${cactus.classpath}, ${maven.classpath}, ${maven.ear.classpath}, ${maven.war.classpath}, ${classpath}, ${maven.dependency.classpath}
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark
Hi Mark,
The cactus plugin for Maven is actually hosted by the Cactus project. Thus all discussions happen there.

That would be a good structure. However the current version of the Cactus plugin for Maven does not support running the Cactus plugin at the level of the EAR project (we need to add support for this). Thus ATM, you need to run the cactus:test-ear goal at the level of the EJB project.

True but that's not supported yet.

Just make sure you have a src/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml file in your EJB project tree (the Cactus requires a war file and at this current it is not yet able to create a default one all by itself).
When you call cactus:test-ear, the Cactus plugin will then create a WAR
containing your Cactus tests (the creation of the WAR currently requires
a web.xml file - we should actually create one if none exists). Then it
will compile your EJB and package the whole thing in an EAR.

Feel free to send some patch if you want it to work the way you described (and/or open some JIRA issues).
Thanks -Vincent
