[jira] Commented: (MEAR-87) Allow exclusion of artifacts when
building the ear file.
[ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEAR-87?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=285167#comment-285167 ]
Dennis Lundberg commented on MEAR-87:
-------------------------------------
I found another approach to solve this issue that I feel works better.
It uses the same method that Maven WAR Plugin has, with packagingExcludes and packagingIncludes. These each take a comma-separated String of file patterns.
This was added in [r1211419|http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1211419].
A new 2.7-SNAPSHOT has been deployed. Please give it a try.
You can look at the ITs that were added in that check-in for examples of how to configure it. I'll write up some documentation and add it to the site later on.

> What is included in the .ear file is determined by the module list and the dependency list and its transitive dependencies. We are often confronted with changing demands about what to include in our ear files. It is quite hard to change our dependency management (scopes) every time without side-effects on other distributable artifacts. So I created an exclude configuration option which allows to exclude artifacts from the ear file based on regular expressions (java.util.regex) matching artifactIds and groupIds.
> Use it like this:
> <configuration>
> <excludes>
> <exclude>
> <groupId>be.nondistributable.*</groupId>
> </exclude>
> </excludes>
> </configuration>
