[jira] Created: (GERONIMO-4434) Folder classpath cannot be added in
geronimo
Folder classpath cannot be added in geronimo
--------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-4434
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4434
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Affects Versions: 2.1.3
Reporter: ganesh
Priority: Blocker
Websphere Application Server has a concept of shared library which can point to external folder (containing configuraition files)....How to achieve the same functionality in geronimo.....Do we need to copy all the files to geronimo shared repository ? If yes, this doesnt work if we have different web application with same configuration file with different parameter values...

----------------------------------
I have some questions
1. Does the entries in config.xml only contains relative path to directories or can we add absolute path like e:\\somefolder
2. Can we add multiple folder classpath in config.xml....If yes what is the syntax ?
for eg: can we have something like
<module name="org.apache.geronimo.configs/sharedlib/2.0.3-SNAPSHOT/car">
<gbean name="SharedLib">
<attribute name="classesDirs">var/shared/classes;e:\\somefolder; c:\\applicationConfig</attribute>
<attribute name="libDirs">var/shared/lib; e:\\apacheJars</attribute>
</gbean>
</module>
Thank You.

------------------------------------
1. I believe that you can specify an absolute file path but I'm not sure about the windows syntax for this. I've never tried this ... you might have to experiment some.
2. You can specify multiple entries using a comma (no space) delimiter.

------------------------------------
Are you familiar with with the Geronimo sharedlib support? We don't publicize this much because it is not considered a best practice as it makes the application less portable in that an application cannot simply be exported as a plugin and installed in another server and work correctly if it is using the shared library.
One would normally copy their jar files to GERONIMO_HOME/var/shared/lib and include the shared library component as a dependency in their geronimo specific deployment plan:
<environment>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.configs</groupId>
<artifactId>sharedlib</artifactId>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</environment>
However, it sounds like you had some concern with having to include the jars in a specific location for the server. You can optionally include other directories of jars or classes in the configuration of the sharedlib in GERONIMO_HOME/var/config/config.xml. The default directories are as follows:
<module name="org.apache.geronimo.configs/sharedlib/2.0.3-SNAPSHOT/car">
<gbean name="SharedLib">
<attribute name="classesDirs">var/shared/classes</attribute>
<attribute name="libDirs">var/shared/lib</attribute>
</gbean>
</module>
You can add these entries under the sharedlib module entry that should already be present in your config.xml and extend or replace the directories listed.
