[EAR-Plugin] - Include Resources

[Paulo Cesar Silva Reis <ca...@gmail.com>]

Hi folks,

I have a multi-module project with several ejb modules. Also, I have custom
configurations for each client so I generate like a sql file contains the
specific properties for each one. It¹s possible to include this file inside
the .ear? Or it¹s better to generate like a file (.tar.gz) with the
generated resources and plus the ear file? And if so, how can I do that?

Also, I would like to know if its possible to execute the deploy stage for
an EAR module using a custom name for the file. For example, when I pass
some parameters for maven, the finalName for the project changes but when I
execute deploy maven does that:

  cp myProject-version-client-ABCX.jar -> myProject-version.jar

It removes my custom finalName.

I really appreciate the help, I tried to search the answer in the mail list
but nothing found.

Thanks guys.

Cesar is correct as the build tool (maven/ant) cannot change package names 

if you need to generate your own package
you *may* want to look at Java Class autogeneration tools such as testsgen 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/autotest

Yes but it has nothing to do with the ear IMO. If you ever need to load that
file from the classpath, adding it to the EAR won't help.

The pattern used for deployed artifacts is standardized and you can't change
it. The repository won't be able to function properly if users have the
ability to customize the name of the file deployed on the repository.
finalName is honored for the package phase.
