I am trying to run an application in a ear file configured with application.xml specified by the <module><java>testClient.jar</java></module>
J2ee says that I should be able to but how do I do that with jboss? Below is a example of what I am trying to accomplish but using another container. http://jonas.objectweb.org/current/doc/PG_Client.html PS I checked the getting started documentation and it showed a app being run using a application-client.xml file but is only running the application using just the client jar if you check the actual ant file that is running the application. It's not using the ear file. Below is a thread I found regarding this topic but havn't found an answer yet. Steve http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3838368 The J2EE specs states that : " Application clients are first tier client programs that execute in their own Java virtual machines. Application clients follow the model for Java technology-based applications: they are invoked at their main method and run until the virtual machine is terminated. However, like other J2EE application components, application clients depend on a container to provide system services. The application client container may be very light-weight compared to other J2EE containers, providing only the security and deployment services described below " Application servers such as Websphere offer a mean to launch such an application with a custom bat ou sh program that initialise the VM with the application-client.xml file contained in the client ear file : how do one achieve this using JBoss ? The JBoss documentation only talks about web container application is this the only possible client of jboss server components ?

The getting started documentation only shows how to package the app, and to run it they execute an ant target which in fact doesn't run the application from the EAR but instead runs java -jar appclient.jar in the build directory. Does JBOSS in fact have a helper class which extracts the client JAR from the EAR and runs it, or do we have to deploy client JARs separately from the EAR? -- Lisp Programming - You don't know what your missing ...
