Bill, if you do not want to improve the existing car-maven-plugin, you will need to use the scope. just like how I added classpathPrefix to be used to > control the prefix for manifest entries. IMO, the classpath should be constructed dynamically using the transitive dependencies of the modules, i.e for j2ee-system config use dependencies of the system module. The way it is now is very hard to maintain. Every time a dependency is changed in the system module, most executable configurations must be updated manually. The current way of maintaining hard coded dependencies in the classPath element are only marginally better than maintaining a large string of the original implementaion. Adding prefix to these dependencies is trivial.
