[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4136) Use recommended packaging for Seam EAR projects

[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4136?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12461609#action_12461609 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-4136:
--------------------------------------------

Worth experimenting, but WTP seem to be broken with respect to /lib folder. See https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBDS-628

If we can figure out how to get .jar's stored in /lib folder and everything works on both WTP and Seam side then *great*.

But if it is listed in manifest.mf AND in /lib wouldn't that result in duplicate entries in the classpath when running tests ? (i.e. from manifest.mf AND WTP EAR libraries classpath container ?)

Needs exploration and verification on both JBoss AS and EAP versions to see what happens.

> JBT uses MANIFEST.MF for setting up artifact classpath, whilst Seam recommends the use of the EAR lib/ directory. By not following this recommendation, JBT users are running in to a number of classloading problems.
