adding apache FOP jars to Geronimo Classpath
Hi
How would I add references to FOP jars in the Geronimo classpath. I am
trying to integrate FOP support into my application on a prepackaged and
built Geronimo Server
How can I do this?
thanks in advance.

I can file a JIRA. Your instructions and pointers have helped me going in the
right direction though. I intend to follow through by filing a JIRA.
thanks

The best way to do this is to put the fop jars into the geronimo
repository at appropraite locations (if the jars are in a maven repo
use the same locations) Then include dependencies on these jars in
your geronimo plan for the web app.
This is pretty basic geronimo information and should be well and
clearly documented. If you cant quickly find more complete
instructions on http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/ could you file a
jira at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO?

How can I add this as a dependency?
<but do you need to update your app to invoke FOP?>
Yes. I need to update my app to invoke FOP.
I was referring to Apache FOP ((Formatting Objects Processor). This is a
print formatter driven by XSL formatting object (XSL-FO). Sorry about not
being clear.
The problem with my WAR archive is that it is already present (as a exploded
war folder)in a prepackaged Application Server customised for a Workflow
application and I am not supposed to disturb that. I tried adding the jars
to the WEB-INF/lib folder and then added the classpath entries in
setenv.bat. But that did not seem to take care of the problem of adding all
required classes, I think
Do I have to create a separate GBean or something. Or is it not that
difficult?
thanks for your time

What is FOP? IIUC, you don't want to add the FOP jar(s) to your
application archive? You can add as a dependency in your geronimo
deployment plan, but do you need to update your app to invoke FOP?
