[Andromda-user] [Spring cartridge] [ejb-jar.xml is not generated!] Spring cartridge without EJBs

["WalterIM" (AndroMDA Forum)]

Hi All,

I am posting this entry pretty late as compared to the earlier posts. I had the same issue few days ago (with Andromda 3.3). When I turned off the EJBs from Spring Cartridge, I got the ejb-jar.xml error in build. So I gave it a dummy ejb-jar.xml, the problem moved to deployment. So I took off the EJB nature for core JAR and bundled it as JAR Module, that gave NoClassDefFoundError for the JARs packaged at EAR level.

To take care of this last problem (and avoiding repackaging the JARs at WAR level), I added a tag <defaultLibBundleDir> in the app/pom.xml, under maven-ear-plugin.

In the app/pom.xml the maven-ear-plugin configuration looks like follows.


            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.3</version>
                <configuration>
                    <includes>**/*.xml</includes>
                    <excludes>**/jboss-app.xml</excludes>
                    <version>1.4</version>
                    <defaultLibBundleDir>/lib</defaultLibBundleDir>
                    <modules>
                        <jarModule>
                            <groupId>${pom.groupId}</groupId>
                            <artifactId>MyProject-common</artifactId>
                            <includeInApplicationXml>true</includeInApplicationXml>
                        </jarModule>
                        <jarModule>
                            <groupId>${pom.groupId}</groupId>
                            <artifactId>MyProject-core</artifactId>
                            <includeInApplicationXml>true</includeInApplicationXml>
                       </jarModule>
                        <webModule>
                            <groupId>${pom.groupId}</groupId>
                            <artifactId>MyProject-web</artifactId>
                            <contextRoot>${application.id}</contextRoot>
                        </webModule>
                    </modules>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>


What this does is, it add a directory lib under the EAR. This enables WAR classloader to inherit class definitions from EAR classloader. The documentation from Maven site for this tag is here;
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-ear-plugin/ear-mojo.html#defaultLibBundleDir

Please let me know if this fix helped you.

Cheers!
Vikram
