[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEAR-33?page=comments#action_71314 ] Ian Springer commented on MEAR-33: ----------------------------------
Right, in my case, the EAR will ultimately be exploded in my product's distribution, and I also want all of the sub J2EE modules to be exploded under the EAR directory. I think the logical way to make this happen is to explode the sub modules during construction of the EAR, even if the EAR will be zipped up in order to install the EAR artifact to the local repo. That way, all I'd have to do in my assembly phase, is unzip the EAR to the correct place in my distribution, rather than having to repackage all of the sub modules as directories during assembly. > add option to include modules in EAR in exploded (i.e. directory) form, > rather than as in jar form > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MEAR-33 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEAR-33 > Project: Maven 2.x Ear Plugin > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Ian Springer > Assigned To: Stephane Nicoll > Attachments: MEAR-33.patch > > > In JBoss, and perhaps other app servers, modules can be packaged in an EAR as > directories.
