Stephane Nicoll commented on MNG-3269: -------------------------------------- Are you happy if I provide a way to build the manifest in a more elegant way? Declaring the dependency as provided+optional is such as mess ... I was more thinking of a declarative way of doing this in the war plugin itself, a la ArtifactItem of the dependency plugin. WDYT? > Different builds for ejb-client optional with parent > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3269 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3269 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.7 > Reporter: Tim Reilly > Attachments: MWAR114-maven-war-plugin-2.0.2.patch, > MWAR114-maven-war-plugin-2.0.2.patch, > MWAR114-maven-war-plugin-2.1-alpha-1.patch, mytime.zip > > > When trying to package a j2ee project's ejb-client artifact in the ear /lib > directory the war plugin's optional attribute is ignored if building from the > parent app project.
