persistence.xml's jar-file setting is misinterpreted
----------------------------------------------------
Key: MHIBERNATE-117
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MHIBERNATE-117
Project: Maven 2.x Hibernate Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: hbm2ddl
Affects Versions: 2.2
Environment: WinXP, Maven 2.2.1
Reporter: Stefan Schilling
Assignee: Johann Reyes
I have the following project setup:
MainProject (consists of several sub projects)
-> Model1
-> Model2
-> Model3
-> EJB
----> src/main/resources/META-INF
----------> persistence.xml (references Model1-3 via <jar-file>)
----> target/EJB
-> EAR
----> target
----------> MainProject (the .ear file's name)
--------------> lib
-----------------------> Model1.jar
-----------------------> Model2.jar
-----------------------> Model3.jar
----------> ejb.jar
--------------> META-INF
-----------------------> persistence.xml (references Model1-3 via <jar-file>)
----> pom.xml
Due to the flexibility required here, the EJB project's Java / Maven part knows
about Model1 (not Model2-3) only. Therefore, the hibernate tools are configured
in the EAR pom.xml (as there are all Model.jars available). Using the plugin
configuration below, the plugin scans the EAR's target directory, finds the
persistence.xml and reads the <jar-file> setting. As the ear file is to be
deployed on an AppServer, the Model jars are referenced as "../lib/Model1.jar"
(../lib/Model2.jar, ../lib/Model3.jar).
Sadly, the plugin misinterprets that path definition. It is not starting at the
persistence.xml's location, but in the folder the pom.xml was found. It
therefore expects the Model.jars to be located at MainProject/lib/Model1-3.jar
(which is: ear pom.xml and then cd ../lib).
As a fix, I would probably introduce an optional parameter, which allows the
user to provide the starting folder for the jar search. Alternatively, have it
start at the persistence.xml's location by default.
Please do not hesitate to ask for any further detauls.
Thanks in advance for your support.
