RE: Combining multiple wars
Andreas, As I am new to Maven 2 I am still trying to work off of examples and I am having a hard time locating an example for what I am trying to do. I have 5 modules that need to get built as follows: A -> A.jar B -> B.jar C -> A.jar + B.jar + C module > C.war D --> C.war + D module > D.war E --> C.war + E module > E.war I hope this is understandable. Basically I need to have the resources and WEB-INF properties to be made available and usable in the D & E wars without overwriting D or E's own files where C's files conflict.The reason for this is C is a service platform with its own admin screens, etc.C & D are different internationalized versions with specific different services both built off of C's base infrastructure. I have the build working except that the property (resource files) and XML (WEB-INF) files are not exploded into the final wars causing the final wars to not see that they exist when tomcat runs. Is there any example on how I can do this? I can't even imagine backing off to Ant at this stage having gone so far. Thanks for any help as I will be using this in multiple projects. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Combining-multiple-wars-tf2235662.html#a6216901 Sent from the Maven - Users forum at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Combining multiple wars
We are using cargo to merge war files: http://cargo.codehaus.org/Merging+WAR+files Andreas -Original Message- From: johne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2006 2:34 PM To: users@maven.apache.org Subject: Combining multiple wars Hello, I am mostly through the process of switching from Ant to Maven2. I have seperated one big project into 5 sub-projects using a hierarchy of poms. I have the following hierarchy: service-platform.war -> baseservices.war -> servicesusa.war Originally these were all gobbed together in one war. Now I am trying to have multiple countries supported and needed a better way of packaging due to differences in services. My problem is that they have shared resources that need to be exploded under the ending serviceusa.war's WEB-INF. This is not happening, however and the resources can not be found. I have tried working with the dependency plogin and the war plugin, but i have not figured out how I can have service-platform.war's WEB-INF exlode into baseservice.war's and then having both of those explode into the serviceusa.war. Preferably it would be good to be able to filter on each of these. Is there a way? Does somebody have an example they can post? I have not been able to find anything that helped in examples or other projects I have downloaded. Thanks!!!

Re: Combining multiple wars
Thanks again Matt. I will give it a shot. I am hoping to be able to keep in touch with updates somehow. Maybe the other nabble thread will keep active. It would be great if a codehaus plugin project could happen for it so others would have access. I had seen other people with the same problem in forums. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Combining-multiple-wars-tf2235662.html#a6210485 Sent from the Maven - Users forum at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Combining multiple wars
You can download the latest drop I received form Mike Horwitz (the author of this plugin) at: http://static.appfuse.org/downloads/maven-warpath-plugin-20060905.zip Matt On 9/7/06, johne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: P.S.: Where might I get the latest version? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Combining-multiple-wars-tf2235662.html#a6200990 Sent from the Maven - Users forum at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Combining multiple wars
Matt, Thank you so much for the lead. I have been struggling over this for days trying different things feeling a bit stupid as there is no real documentation on it. I will check out the plugin you mentioned. I am using Netbeans 5.5 beta so hope it integrates with that. I had found it was much easier to integrate with M2 and Netbeans in a multi-module project. I am hoping that when I follow your link, I manage to find a bit of documentation and a few examples. Again I appreciate your ideas.

Re: Combining multiple wars
The current war functionality does not allow you to get the dependencies and use them in a child project. The good news is we're working on a solution in the AppFuse project. So far we have a "warpath" plugin that allows you to do what you're looking for. http://www.nabble.com/Maven-2-issues-for-Appfuse-2-tf2189359s2369.html#a6138807 The last thing we're trying to solve is how to get the eclipse and idea plugins to recognize the dependencies and include them in the generated project files.
