[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & Deployment] - Re: Shared classpath within an EAR?

You really should not use the java module approach. There are other alternatives. EE5 includes mechanism to load thirdparty jars from a centralized location. 

In J2EE 1.4 you can declare a libs directory, place your 3rd party jars in them and list each one explicitly in the MANIFEST.MF file of your application components

  | EAR
  |    -->lib
  |         -->jar1
  |         -->jar2
  |    ejb-module.jar
  |          -->META-INF
  |               -->MANIFEST.MF
  |                       (Class-Path: lib/jar1.jar, lib/jar2.jar

Note, regular scoping rules apply in that if you are using an isolated CL with Java2ParentDelegation turned off, this will force the load from the lib directory. If not, and a class exists in a higher class loader, this one will be chosen.
