This is related to an existing issue: [FORGE-773] entities for scaffold could be binary,
not source - JBoss Issue Tracker (
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-773); we'll
eventually get this fixed by allowing the scaffoldable JPA entities to reside in a
different Maven module of the same project.
For now, you could use the same workaround I discussed in the other thread - generate the
scaffold in the war project by placing the JPA entities in it. In fact, in the case of
Java EE 6+ projects, the EAR style projects with an ejb jar and a war should be used only
when you really need to (Java EE 5 and earlier had limitations on EJBs being required to
be placed in in EJB-JARs and not in WARs); it is perfectly fine to create EJBs in your
WARs.
