How to include application.xml in ear

[Tanuja Goturi]

 Hi all,

 I am using Ant 1.7.0.
 I tried using the ear task in my build.xml. It gives me the corresponding
ear but it doesnt include the application.xml
 I tried using the metainf task too. But still it doesn't include
the application.xml in the ear.
 It gives me the following warning

 *app-ear*:

 [*ear*] Building ear: c:\test\accountsmodule.ear

 [*ear*] Warning: selected ear files include a META-INF/application.xml
 which will be ignored (please use appxml attribute to ear task)

 I am mentioning below the script i am using.

 <target name="app-ear" depends="app-war">
 <delete file="c:/test/${project.name}.ear">
 </delete>
 <ear file="c:/test/${project.name}.ear" appxml="${appxml.path}">
 <!--
 <metainf dir="D:/workspace/accountsmoduleEAR/META-INF" includes="*.*"/>
 -->
 <metainf file="${appxml.path}/*.xml">
 </metainf>
 <fileset dir="c:/test/war">
 <include name="*.*"/>
 </fileset>
 </ear>
 </target>

 Kindly help me out.

 Thanks in Advance

The appxml property should be your application.xml and not a path to
it. Here's what my ear task looks like:

<ear
    destfile="${deploy.dir}/@{app.name}.ear"
    manifest="@{manifest}"
    appxml="${app.metainf.dir}/application.xml">
    <fileset dir="${ear.dir}">
        <exclude name="META-INF/application.xml"/>
    </fileset>
</ear>

Interesting note: Although the application.xml file was in the correct
place in my fileset, I have to point to it via the appxml parameter,
then exclude it from my fileset.
