Setting up complex webapp
Hi,
I'm trying to make an existing complexe web application working with
Maven 2. The first module is called "Framework". It contains java
classes, JSP, xml, ... but it's not a webapp by itself. There are many
applications based on this framework. Currently, I'm just focussed on a
simple one. This application, called "ISF", contains classes, JSP, ...
ISF classes depend on Framework classes.
Today, deployment is done by Ant scripts. Java part of the framework is
store in a Jar file. Java part of ISF is store in a Jar too. And
finally, all JSPs and other stuff are copied in the server directory.
I tried different solution to make it working with Maven:
- I tried to build a JAR of Framework, and to build a WAR of ISF, with
Framework as dependency. But Framework JSP are finally in the JAR,
instead of being in the root of the final WAR.
- I tried to build a WAR of Framework, and to build a war of ISF, with
Framework as dependency. But compile of ISF failed, since ISF classes
need Framework classes.
I'm a bit lost in the Maven world, and if someone could give me some tips...
Thanks

Does this really work? Maven will compile against all the jars in
WEB-INF/lib and the classes in WEB-INF/classes? Is this documented
somewhere?
</dependencies>

The 'exploded' goal will try to *build* the exploded war, though, not just
explode it. I doubt that's what you'd want. More likely, you'd want to use
the dependency plugin to unpack the war. See:

Hi,
you can use the war dependency like this :
web framework POM :
<project>
<groupId>sample</groupId>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<artifactId>web-fwk</artifactId>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<version>0.9-SNAPSHOT</version>
<name>Web Framework</name>
</project>
web final POM
<project>
<groupId>sample</groupId>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<artifactId>web</artifactId>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<version>0.9-SNAPSHOT</version>
<name>Web</name>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>sample</groupId>
<artifactId>web-fwk</artifactId>
<version>0.9-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>war</type>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
<finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0-beta-3-SNAPSHOT</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exploded</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>
This will exploded all war dependencies into your target directory and
classes of all war will be in the classpath.
