We are doing this with both WSAD and RAD with minimal problems using
Maven 1.0.2. I wrote a maven.xml script that we run to copy all jar
files into the EAR project for development, and declare dependencies in
the EAR project's project.xml that get them included in the build for
runtime. The biggest pain is when you want to change the dependencies
of the EJB/WAR project - end up having to change in two places (the
project and the EAR project). But we are working steadily toward an
optimal solution.

I am able to build my projects and EAR in both WSAD and RAD6. Now problem I
face is in third party jars.
in RAD6/WSAD project structure is like this
EAR Project
contains application.xml for EAR
contains all third party JAR required by application
JAR project
EJB Project
WAR Project
contains JSPs
contains third party JARs like struts etc in the LIB folder
Now when I used Maven in my development environment, I moved all the third
party JARS to maven repository and changed the dependencies accordingly. My
java project, ejb projects and war project compiled fine. I am able to
create EAR too.
Now when I want to run/debug my application on built in Websphere
application server, server complains about the third party JARs. Initially,
I thought of adding all the third party jars in server classpath - but this
is not a good idea. Shall I explode my EAR into EAR project, so that I will
have all the third party jars there. Is there someother best practice that I
can follow? I am sure someone may have resolved this issue, (maven is
around for long).
Please advice.
Thanks,
Sanjay
