i went through a bunch of posts and did not find the answer. Finally i
solved it as explained below. my way is possibly a little verbose but it
does the job. SO my goal was to be able to include my libs(.jar files)
which are in some third party dir referenced by $3rdParty-libs, into the
WEB-INF/lib directory. Also the structure of my 3rd-party-libs is:
/...../
-3rd-party-libs/
- cometd-2.4.3/
- bunch of .jar files
- commons-lang3-3.1/
- bunch of .jar files
- restlet-jee-2.1.2/
- bunch of .jar files
So in addition to getting all the required jar files under my war's
WEB-INF/lib directory i did NOT want the directory structure of these jar
files to be carried over
i.e i did NOT want WEB-INF/lib/cometd-2.4.3/<someCometd>.jar
i wanted it like: WEB-INF/lib/<someCometd>.jar
so the simple solution is to specify the war task's <lib> nested element
multiple times. Once per directory that you want to reference inside your
3rd-party-libs directory.
Here is my war target:
================
<target name="war" depends="compile">
<war destfile="dist/waisApp.war" webxml="WebContent/WEB-INF/web.xml"
update="true">
<lib dir="${3rd-party-libs}/cometd-2.4.3/">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</lib>
<lib dir="${3rd-party-libs}/commons-lang3-3.1/">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</lib>
<lib dir="${3rd-party-libs}/restlet-jee-2.1.2/">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</lib>
<fileset dir="WebContent"/>
<classes dir="build/classes"/>
</war>
</target>
