                 Key: MWAR-178
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-178
             Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: David Jencks


The example I'm aware of:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/skinny-wars.html 
talks about using the war's manifest.mf classpath to include jars in the ear in 
the war module's classloader.  In ee5, there's a ear lib directory: everything 
in that is automatically included in the ear level classloader, which is 
certainly available to every war, most likely by being a parent classloader to 
the war classloader.  One consequence of this is that using the manifest 
classpath in a 1.4 container will likely result in each war getting separate 
copies of the lib jar classes whereas the ee5 lib directory will result in 
shared classes.
