Unable to change dependency using client_artifact_aliases.properties

[Ashish Jain <as...@gmail.com>]

 Hi!!

  I am using *client_artifact_aliases.properties *to change the dependeny.
These are the steps I am following.

1)Deploy a dbpool *sample *using db2-8.2 jars.
2)launch the dependency viewer.
3)It shows a dependency on 8.2 jars.
4)Added the following in *client_artifact_aliases.properties*
*com.ibm.db2/db2jcc/8.2/jar=com.ibm.db2/db2jcc/9.1/jar
com.ibm.db2/db2jcc_license_cu/8.2/jar =com.ibm.db2/db2jcc_license_cu/9.1/jar
*
5)Stop the server.
6)Restart the server.
7)launch the dependency viewer.
8)It still shows a dependency on 8.2 jars

please let me know if I have missed any step.
Is there any other way to view the dependeny of the deployed module.

Thanks
Ashish

Also, client_artifact_aliases works for javaee app clients, and does  
not affect the server in any way.  You could try with  
artifact_aliases.properties

Also, I believe (but don't entirely remember) that artifacts that  
include a version cannot be switched: if you want to use this  
facility the dependency you want to switch should not have a version  
in it.

thanks

Ashish,
As David Jencks mentioned on the "Unable to use  
artifact_aliases.properties and client_artifact_aliases.properties",  
there is a very good chance that artifact aliasing only works on a  
Module level, not on specific jars.

Module aliases would look like:  org.apache.geronimo.configs/j2ee- 
security//car=org.apache.geronimo.configs/client-security/2.0- 
SNAPSHOT/car

You are attempting to alias specific jars, e.g.: com.ibm.db2/db2jcc/ 
8.2/jar=com.ibm.db2/db2jcc/9.1/jar
