Hi everyone... I'm writing my first S2 plugin and I'm running into a
problem, which may well just be one of understanding.
I had thought that any JAR placed in the root of the plugin JAR would be
added to the path, but this seemingly isn't the case. My understanding is
that a plugin JAR is a self-contained entity, and this to me means it
should include any JARs it is itself dependant on.
So, is my understanding correct, and assuming so, how can I get those
internal JARs available? I should note that I'm looking for the included
JARs to be available not only to my plugin code but *also* to code in the
webapp its a part of, which maybe isn't possible? If it isn't, is there
any potential for conflict by having the same JAR within the plugin JAR
and also in WEb-INF/lib of the webapp?
Well, I've written some plugins, and I never pack dependencies in the
same jar, for precisely that reason. But if you really want, you can
always repack jars, but I really see no good reason for it. OSGi,
anyone ?
