Duplicate class warnings when using shade plugin
I am building my JAR file using the shade plugin in order to give me an all-in-one JAR artifact which contains all dependency JARs. When I build using "mvn clean install" I always get thousands of message like the following, indicating that there's a duplicate class file in a JAR in the repository, which I assume is coming from the shade plugin when it's doing its thing: [WARNING] We have a duplicate net/sf/cglib/util/StringSwitcher$StringSwitcherKey.class in C:\dev\maven\repository\cglib\cglib-full\2.0.2\cglib-full-2.0.2.jar Is this something I should worry about or is it just an annoyance to live with for now? The resulting JAR artifact works well, maybe this is nothing to worry over, but I want to ask here in case there is something I can fix which will make these warning messages go away. I can't find anything about this using Google, etc. Here's the plugin section from my pom.xml: org.apache.maven.plugins maven-shade-plugin 1.2 package shade junit:junit Thanks in advance for any advice. --James -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Duplicate-class-warnings-when-using-shade-plugin-tp23951216p23951216.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org

I am running my DAO tests using an embedded HSQLDB database, so I expect to start with a fresh table every time, then do some inserts, etc., then do a find call to see how many are in the table, and then make an assertion based on the expected number, and this is where it fails when running a full build.

Tests run fine in NetBeans, but fail using command line Maven
I have several tests which I can run individually from NetBeans or at the command line and they pass OK, but if I run "mvn clean install" from command line several of these same tests will fail.

How can I determine which dependencies are essential?
I have a few dependencies in my pom.xml which pull in many transitive dependencies, and this results in a huge war artifact. I want to pare down the dependencies using exclusions in order that the resulting war will contain only the jars that it really needs, but my problem is that I don't know how to go about figuring out which dependencies are necessary and which ones can be excluded. Is there a good way to do this other than trial and error?

Re: How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
As far as doing my complete EAR build with a single
Maven command I was unable to get either of the
proposed solutions to work. In any event I really
appreciate all of the help with this, it has been an
informative exercise.
Below is a summary of my current solution, which uses
a simple shell script to do the overall EAR
build/install. I hope this will be a helpful
contribution. If anyone sees something which is
obviously wrong (which might bite me later) then
please point it out. It seems to work well for now.
--James

The project has the following directory layout:
C:/dev/myproj-app
C:/dev/myproj-core
C:/dev/myproj-ejb
C:/dev/myproj-web
C:/dev/myproj-app Details:
-
The directory C:/dev/myproj-app has no source code and
is used primarily as a substitute for a true root
directory under which the other modules would reside
if this Maven-preferred directory layout was possible
(I am using Eclipse which doesn't allow this sort of
hierarchical project directory layout).
In the myproj-app/maven directory is a project.xml
which has the overall project's ,
Project Management entries (,
, etc.), and entry. These are
omitted from the other modules' project.xml files and
"inherited" by virtue of having an entry
which references this main project.xml. There are no
dependencies in this maven/project.xml file.
The dependencies section of the myproj-app project's
project.xml includes dependencies for the modules
which make up the EAR:
myproj
myproj-core
${pom.currentVersion}
jar
true
myproj
myproj-ejb
${pom.currentVersion}
ejb
true
myproj
myproj-web
${pom.currentVersion}
war
/
true
In the myproj-app project's project.properties file is
the following property which is necessary for Maven to
generate the EAR's application.xml:
maven.ear.appxml.generate = true
I have created a script which does the entire EAR
build process, listed below:
#!/bin/sh
#-
# build and install the core JAR
cd ../myproj-core
maven jar:install
#-
# build and install the EJB JAR
cd ../myproj-ejb
maven ejb:install
#-
# build and install the WAR
cd ../myproj-web
maven war:install
#-
# build and install the EAR
cd ../myproj-app
maven ear:install
C:/dev/myproj-core Details:
--
This project contains the core classes used by all
other modules (JavaBeans, util and exception classes,
etc.). The project.xml contains only dependencies for
the libraries needed for the build. The JAR is built
and installed to the local repository by running
"maven jar:install".
C:/dev/myproj-ejb Details:
-
This project contains the EJB classes. The
project.xml contains dependencies for the libraries
needed for the build, as well as for the myproj-core
module. The JAR is built and installed to the local
repository by running "maven ejb:install".
The dependency needed for the core module:
myproj

jar
true
C:/dev/myproj-web Details:
-
This project contains the Servlet and associated
utility classes used by the web module. The
project.xml contains dependencies for the libraries
needed for the build, a dependency for the EJB module,
and a dependency for the myproj-core module. The WAR

running "maven war:install".
The dependencies needed for the core module:

Creating a SAR for JBoss MBeans
I would like to create a SAR which contains JMX MBean classes and a META-INF with a deployment descriptor. Essentially the layout of the SAR file is the same as an EJB JAR, but I suspect that I shouldn't be using the ejb plugin for this. However I don't see any other plugins which look to be appropriate to this task. Is there a plugin:goal for this task, or will I need to cook one up myself ? Is there a special directory I need to have under src so that the goal will pick up the META-INF/* files (such as src/ejb for ejb, src/application for ear, etc.) ? To clarify things here is what I want my SAR file to contain: com.mycompany.myproject.management.MyClass.class com.mycompany.myproject.management.MyClassMBean.class META-INF/jboss-service.xml Thanks in advance. --James __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
David your approach looks to be as simple as possible. The only problem is that Eclipse really doesn't allow me to have my entire project under a root directory, hence I'll probably take Arnaud's suggestion and create a "root" project at the same level as the other projects/modules. With this arrangement your solution will not work unaltered since if I run "maven multiproject:install" from the root project directory it doesn't know about any subprojects since they're all on the same level as the root project, instead of under it. With this in mind is there still a way to make your solution work ? Everything I've tried so far has bombed. Maybe it's just as easy to use Arnaud's suggested solution ?

RE: How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
Thanks Arnaud, this looks like a perfect solution. Unfortunately I have two problems which I'm not sure how to handle: 1. When I try the proposed solution I get an exception complaining about the j element not being bound. For example: Fatal Error [line 4, row 40]: The prefix "j" for element "j:set" is not bound. org.apache.maven.MavenException: Error parsing plugin script Am I perhaps missing a Maven component which is not part of the default distribution ? 2. Because I am using Eclipse I cannot have all of my projects in subdirectories under a main project directory. Hence I have the myproj-app project which I'm using to build the EAR (there is no code in that project, it's just there for Maven build purposes). It's this project's directory that I'm using as a faux root directory. Essentially my directory layout looks like this: C:\dev\myproj-app C:\dev\myproj-ejb C:\dev\myproj-util C:\dev\myproj-web For testing the proposed solution I have created a maven.xml and project.properties in C:\dev. However I would like to have the myproj-app directory be the place where the original maven command is called. I am planning to do something like the below in the maven.xml and project.properties under C:\dev\myproj-app: --- maven.xml --- --- project.properties --- # Multiproject properties maven.multiproject.includes=../myproj-ejb/project.xml,../myproj-util/project.xml,../myproj-web/project.xml maven.multiproject.excludes=project.xml Does this look reasonable ? (I can't test it myself until I resolve issue #1 above, as it gives the same exceptions.)

Re: How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
Thanks for the help so far. After some initial confusion I've come up with a working solution. I have broken my project up into three separate projects (myproj-util, myproj-ejb, and myproj-web) and created an overall project for creating the EAR (myproj-app). I found http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-maven/index.html to be a very helpful resource, with a good explanation of how I can extend the main POM in order to have the same version number across all of the modules. I'd like to come up with a way to run one maven command to do the following: 1. create and install the myproj-util-.jar 2. create and install the myproj-ejb-.jar 3. create and install the myproj-web-.war 4. create and install the myproj-app-.ear >From what I can tell this is not possible with a single maven command and I will have to cook up a script which will call the jar:install, ejb:install, war:install, and ear:install maven goals from the proper directories.

Re: How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
Tim thanks for your message. You have brought up a very good point, in that the WAR and EJB pieces of my application do essentially go together, so there's no real need to build a WAR and EJB JAR to include in an EAR when I can just create the EAR instead. If this is the case then I need to figure out the correct layout for my development directories which Maven will expect to find when I run maven ear. 1. Where do the JSP pages & image directories go ? Do these go in src/webapp, or is this only relevant for maven war ? What about the WEB-INF with the web.xml etc. ? 2. Where do I put the ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml ? Should I perhaps keep all of the JBoss related config files such as jboss.xml and jboss-web.xml someplace else and separate from the base application, in order to make the code more generic ? How would one go about isolating just the JBoss elements into their own areas, but then including these when building an EAR ? 3. I have some JMX MBean classes that need to be deployed in a separate SAR file (in order to be run as JBoss services), but which the classes of my application access indirectly. Is there a special directory layout for these classes and their associated META-INF/jboss-service.xml ? Also these MBean classes use a few classes found in the core of the application (some custom Exception and JavaBean classes) - how is this handled ? Should this be a separate project from the main application ? 4. Do I need to create an application.xml for the EAR ? how to begin ? It seems that since I have no web or ejb modules then I don't need to specify anything in the application.xml.

How to build a EAR with EJB and WAR included ?
I want to build an EAR file which contains a WAR and EJB JAR. Currently I am able to have all of my class files put into a single JAR, whether I do "maven ejb" or "maven war", but really what I want is a goal which will 1. Create the WAR with all JSPs and Servlet classes. My project's directory layout as far as web components goes looks like this: myproject +-- src +-- java +-- all needed packages including servlets +-- webapp +-- WEB-INF +-- web.xml +-- jboss-web.xml +-- all JSP and HTML files, img directories, etc. 2. Create the EJB JAR with all EJB and dependency classes My project's directory layout as far as EJB components goes looks like this: myproject +-- src +-- java +-- all needed packages including ejbs +-- ejb +-- META-INF +-- jboss.xml +-- ejb-jar.xml 3. Create an EAR file which includes both the WAR and EJB JAR created above My project's directory layout as far as EAR components goes looks like this: myproject +-- src +-- application +-- META-INF +-- application.xml In the end I want the EAR to contain the EJB JAR and WAR files, with an application.xml specifying the modules. Is this possible ? Are the directory layouts above what I need for this sort of Maven goal ? Since the Servlet and EJB classes are both under the src/java directories how will I tell Maven which classes need to go in the WAR file and which ones go in the EJB JAR ?

Building WAR files and Eclipse integration
I have started using Maven for a J2EE project which I am developing using Eclipse as my IDE. I have several questions about how to get this environment set up correctly. After creating the Eclipse project I created a project.xml and a project.properties in the project's base directory (I copied and modified these from a colleague's preexisting non-Eclipse Maven project). I have a src/java and src/test subdirectories under the base directory, as well as a WEB-INF directory. I ran "maven eclipse" and everything appears to have gone as expected. I refreshed the project in Eclipse and specified the MAVEN_REPO variable so that it can find the j2ee.jar file specified in the element of the project.xml. It appears to build everything correctly when I save the source files, in that class files are being put into target/classes subdirectory. However the Java source editor shows error messages (symbol unresolved) on every line of my servlet class sources which have a reference to a class (essentially all javax.servlet.* classes) which should be found in the j2ee.jar specified as a dependency (this is probably an Eclipse problem, but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone reading this recognizes the problem). I don't see how you can specify which files you will include in a WAR file. I know how I would do it using Ant (in the build.xml), but I have yet to locate the documentation which explains how you specify this for Maven. Is there a "How To" document which explains this ? Essentially I want to package all of the JSP and HTML pages and everything under WEB-INF directory (web.xml, classes, tlds, etc.) into the WAR file. Is this specified in some way in the project.xml file, or in a maven.xml file, as it would be in the build.xml for Ant ? I have tried using the war goal in order to see what it will do but I have never been able to get it to work. I have tried "maven war:webapp: and "maven war:war", both of which give me the following error message: BUILD FAILED File.. file:/C:/Documents and Settings/jadams/.maven/plugins/maven-caller-plugin-1.0/plugin.jelly Element... attainGoal Line.. 33 Column 39 No goal [java:compile] Total time: 5 seconds Finished at: Fri Apr 02 13:57:30 EST 2004 Is there some way to get around this, or does the above indicate an incomplete installation or some other configuration trouble ? Typically web applications put class files into /WEB-INF/classes, but the default target directory using Maven is target/classes. Is there some way that I can modify this such that running "maven eclipse" will make Eclipse put generated classes into the specified location ? Again I assume that there is an element which I could add to project.xml to effect this change, but I don't see where it is specified in the documentation. How do I configure Eclipse to use maven ? I assume that I need to set up Maven as an external tool in Eclipse - can anyone comment on this process ? I am using Maven 1.0-rc2 and Eclipse 2.1.3.
