Using the Maven EBA Plugin with web applications
Hi, I'm trying to build an EBA using the eba-maven-plugin. I am
building a war file and then augmenting it using the
maven-bundle-plugin to build the manifest. The problem I am running
into is that this still results in a war file. The eba plugin is
complaining because it has no jars on it's depenencies list. Is there
a way around this? Should I be using a different method to create the
bundle? Thanks!

Hmm,
I'm thinking there is no way I would have known to suggest that
configuration. This tells me that I knew even less about maven than I
thought (and I thought I knew very little already) :)
I'm glad you got something that works. I think I'm going to have to hit the
books to work out what this is doing.

Thanks, the maven-bundle-plugin works. The ideas put forth in your
blog entry got me about half way there. A sample pom would have
gotten me the rest of the way. Getting the plugin specification
correct took a lot of digging around. Here is what I ended up using.
Cheers!

Hi,
Have you considered using the maven-bundle-plugin to build your wab?
Shameless plug, but I blogged on how to do this:
http://coding.alasdair.info/2011/01/creating-web-application-bundle-using.html
Would that work for you? I'm interested to know.
