Hello everyone, As per the Maven best practices found at https://books.sonatype.com/mvnref-book/reference/pom-relationships-sect-pom-best-practice.html <https://books.sonatype.com/mvnref-book/reference/pom-relationships-sect-pom-best-practice.html>, I am trying to group common dependencies in separate modules of a multi-module project. When running the project in Eclipse everything works fine but when I deploy the application the startup fails due to bad jar-files.
I narrowed down the classpath entries causing the application to fail and discovered the cause. For some reason the *ClassPath.txt files generated by the wolifecycle plugin contain entries even for the pom type dependencies. So if I have a dependency like this in my pom file <dependency> <groupId>com.example</groupId> <artifactId>Dependencies</artifact> <version>1.0</version> <type>pom</pom> </dependency> I get an entry in my *ClassPath.txt files like this APPROOT/Resources/Java/com/example/Dependencies/1.0/Dependencies-1.0.jar Since the respective modules do not produce jar files due to their packaging type being 'pom', the built generates some dummy .jar files which seem to be broken. When I try to unzip such files from the command line, I get the error: End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. When I remove the faulty entries from the *ClassPath.txt files, the application starts successfully. Has anyone encountered this problem? Is there a good way to have the build process remove such entries automatically or maybe not generate them at all? Thanks a lot for any suggestions!
