Brett Porter updated MNG-1028: ------------------------------ Fix Version: 2.0-beta-4 > WAR plugin should support minimal WARs for inclusion within an EAR > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-1028 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1028 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Improvement > Components: maven-war-plugin > Versions: 2.0-beta-1 > Reporter: mike perham > Fix For: 2.0-beta-4 > Attachments: ear-packaged.diff.txt > > > I noticed that when I build a WAR, I get a gigantic WEB-INF/lib with all my > deps. This is fine for a default but maven should also support "skeleton" > WARs which will be packaged within an EAR. We have EARs which package 3-4 > WARs each and to have the deps duplicated within each WAR means we cannot > have shared data (since the classes are loaded within each WAR's classloader, > rather than by the parent EAR's classloader). It also means 80MB EARs! :-) > It seems like two things need to happen: > 1) Add a "skeleton" flag which prevents copying any dependencies to > WEB-INF/lib. > 2) Instead generate a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF which has a Class-Path entry which > lists the relative locations of the dependencies within the parent EAR. > Fabrice has basically the same idea written down here.
