We avoid this by turning all war projects into projects with packaging jar that creates a normal library out of the classes. The war is itself build then with a classifier (webapp in our case). The jar plugin has been configured to create the resulting jar in target/webapp/WEB-INF/lib while the war is assembled in target/webapp. Therefore the war contains also the local jar and resources. In case of an overlay we exclude then any stuff from WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes and get the proper dependencies declaring the jar and the webapp both as deps. - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
