I think the reason he's using both plugins is that the ejb-plugin currently doesn't provide the includes/excludes configuration as the jar plugin. So the intention is not to produce two (main) artifacts from the same pom but to just to have the ejb and a ejb-client jar.
What happens with this pom snippet is that the jar produced by the jar-plugin is overwritten by the jar produced by the ejb-plugin, as both produce main artifacts (with the same filename) for the project. You can try moving the jar-plugin configuration afer the ejb-plugin in your pom and see if that helps. The real solution for this of course is to support the includes/excludes configuration in the ejb plugin, too. -Tim Wayne Fay schrieb: > Is there a specific reason you're building both artifacts out of the > one codebase?
