Those classes inside the inner jar file do not need do be loaded by a classloader. The JAR file is a bundle of classes and resources and the inner jar file is just another resource. It has to be in there because it's a framework project and the structure is somewhat standard. > You will probably need to use the Assembly plugin to create the > package you require. I did not know how to do this. Compile some classes twice (for inner and outer jar) build the inner jar file and embed it in the outer one. The ant-run plugin was the best bet here, I guess. regards Thomas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
