[jbosstools-dev] Mavenizing Seam EAR project

I have created mavenized Seam Booking example. The project is based on the project created by Fred Bricon (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-688). It is compatible with JBoss Tools and includes content assist, Seam validator, etc. All libraries are mavenized (booking/WebContent/WEB-INF/lib is empty; there isn't any library in booking-ear; sources are available if they exist in Maven repositories...). The size of the mavenized EAR booking archive is about 200K, the size of non-mavenized EAR booking archive is about 8MB. In order to test the project, you need to do the following: - call Help>Project Examples>Seam>Seam Booking example - EAR mavenized You will get booking, booking-ejb, booking-ear and booking-parent projects - add some JBoss Server, JBoss Seam Runtime and database connection profile - make resources/booking-ds.xml deployable - wait until "Maven indexer" and "Maven update dependencies" are finished If you deploy the project before maven updates its classpath, it could happen some libraries not to be deployed (booking.war/WEB-INF/lib, for instance). If this happens, you need to close the booking project and open it again (or restart Eclipse). - deploy booking-ear - start the server I have used Eclipse 3.4.1, WTP 3.0.3, JBoss Tools 3.0.0 nigthly, m2eclipse 0.9.7.200811301806, Seam 2.0.2 SP1, JBoss AS 4.2.3 It is much easier to mavenize a Seam WAR project.
