J2EE Module Dependencies being reset ?

[Dhondt, Edwin]

Standalone Maven2 installation (2.2.1) + M2Eclipse 0.10 plugin + 0.10 extra WTP integration.
1. Multimodule project (under SVN)
myproject\codebase
pom.xml (includes modules)
\modules
pom.xml (includes the different submodules)
\<moduleX>
\...
\<moduleEAR>
\<moduleWAR>
2. Run mvn clean from within myproject\codebase from cmdline (Maven 2.2.1 used).
3. Remove all .* files from above directory structure.
4. Start Eclipse.
(Maven embedder not selected, standalone Maven 2.2.1 selected instead)
5. Import Existing Maven Projects
*

myprojects\codebase selected as root directory.
*       all other settings on the import dialog box at their defaults.
*       import projects.
*       everything goes fine.
*       Eclipse project properties - J2EE Module Dependencies of the EAR project correctly shows mywar-1.0.0.war as a dependency.
6. Deploy to Glassfish server (using glassfish plugin) goes fine.
7. Run As Maven ... (eg test) also goes fine.
8. Exit Eclipse.
9. Start Eclipse.
10. Deployment to glassfish no longer works because project's J2EE Module Dependencies have changed suddenly.
Instead of mywar-1.0.0.war the J2EE Module Dependencies of the EAR roject now reference mywar.war instead => version dropped !!??.
Upon deploying glassfish/eclipse suddenly produces an ear containing a mywar.war, but application.xml still correctly
mentions (web-uri) mywar-1.0.0.war.
Upon deployment, things fail because a mywar-1.0.0.war is expected but a mywar.war was produced and made part of the EAR.
Therefore I get a deployment exception because file was not found.

What is happening here ?
I did not have this on Eclipse 3.5.1, m2eclipse 0.9.8, maven embedder 2.1.0... Using that configuration I can restart Eclipse without my J2EE Module Dependencies changing.
Is this a bug, can this be fixed ? If not what workaround can I apply ?
Urgent.
Thanks,
EDH

Yes this is a bug. Can you open a JIRA issue please?(https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE)
As a workaround, you can specify the bundleFileName in your maven-ear-plugin to match the version-less names generated by WTP.

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.3.2</version>
                <configuration>
                    <version>5</version>
                    <defaultLibBundleDir>lib</defaultLibBundleDir>
                    <!-- project bundlefilenames are overridden to avoid nasty bugs in Eclipse WTP :
                    - After a workspace restart, WTP might not match a project name with the archive name it's supposed to deploy
                    - the Glassfish WTP connector won't deploy projects having dots in their name
                    -->
                    <modules>
                        <webModule>
                            <groupId>foo.bar</groupId>
                            <artifactId>myweb</artifactId>
                            <contextRoot>/myweb</contextRoot>
                            <bundleFileName>myweb.war</bundleFileName>
                        </webModule>
                        <ejbModule>
                            <groupId>foo.bar</groupId>
                            <artifactId>myejb</artifactId>
                            <bundleFileName>myejb.jar</bundleFileName>

                    </modules>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

If you really want to keep the version # in your final ear (generated with maven), you should be able to use a m2e profile for specific eclipse config like this :

    <profiles>
        <!-- Add a dedicated m2eclipse profile, to prevent the Java Builder to be added to the project in Eclipse (see http://tiny.cc/NoJavaInEar)-->

          <activation>
            <property>
              <name>m2e.version</name>
            </property>
          </activation>
          <build>
            <plugins>

                <configuration>
                    <version>5</version>
                    <defaultLibBundleDir>lib</defaultLibBundleDir>
                    <!-- project bundlefilenames are overridden to avoid nasty bugs in Eclipse WTP :
                    - After a workspace restart, WTP might not match a project name with the archive name it's supposed to deploy
                    - the Glassfish WTP connector won't deploy projects having dots in their name
                    -->
                    <modules>
                        <webModule>
                            <groupId>foo.bar</groupId>

    </profiles>


If that doesn't fit your needs, there's still a manual (yiiiikes) operation you can do :
in ear/.settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component add an archiveName attribute to your project modules like :

<dependent-module deploy-path="/"  archiveName="mywar-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT" handle="module:/resource/mywar/mywar">


Hope this helps.

I opened a JIRA issue yesterday (http://issues.sonatype.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-2123).

 

In the meanwhile thanks for the provided workarounds.

Regarding those workarounds.

 

I understand the first one and the third one.

 

The second one sounds the most interesting though, but I don’t fully understand it yet.

I guess the xml snippet must be added to each of my ear module pom’s (if I have multiple ear modules) ?

Further, in this workaround the m2e profile will be active/activated when the m2e.version property is present. That’s correct no ?

Can you clarify a bit then how, when starting Eclipse/when working in Eclipse, everything will work thanks to this profile ?

How does this profile prevent the Java Builder from being added to my ear project ?

Will the m2eclipse plugin detect on startup of Eclipse or when working in Eclipse that this profile is active ?

If yes, where is this m2e.version property defined then, or is it a “well-known/standard m2eclipse” property ?

Can you clarify a bit please ?

 

Thanks.

m2e profile activation is explained  in the wiki https://docs.sonatype.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2949459
Basically, you tell m2eclipse which configurators will be applied to a project, which mojo will participate to the build.
Each EAR module/project should configure this profile.

I've set up a couple archetypes preconfigured for m2e at http://code.google.com/p/open-archetypes/

If that doesn't fit your needs, there's still a manual (yiiiikes) operation you can do :
in ear/.settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component add an archiveName attribute to your project modules like :

<dependent-module deploy-path="/"  archiveName="mywar-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT" handle="module:/resource/mywar/mywar">


Hope this helps.

Standalone Maven2 installation (2.2.1) + M2Eclipse 0.10 plugin + 0.10 extra WTP integration.

2. Run mvn clean from within myproject\codebase from cmdline (Maven 2.2.1 used).
3. Remove all .* files from above directory structure.
4. Start Eclipse.
(Maven embedder not selected, standalone Maven 2.2.1 selected instead)
5. Import Existing Maven Projects

myprojects\codebase selected as root directory.
*       all other settings on the import dialog box at their defaults.
*       import projects.
*       everything goes fine.
*       Eclipse project properties - J2EE Module Dependencies of the EAR project correctly shows mywar-1.0.0.war as a dependency.
6. Deploy to Glassfish server (using glassfish plugin) goes fine.
7. Run As Maven ... (eg test) also goes fine.
8. Exit Eclipse.
9. Start Eclipse.
10. Deployment to glassfish no longer works because project's J2EE Module Dependencies have changed suddenly.
Instead of mywar-1.0.0.war the J2EE Module Dependencies of the EAR roject now reference mywar.war instead => version dropped !!??.
Upon deploying glassfish/eclipse suddenly produces an ear containing a mywar.war, but application.xml still correctly
mentions (web-uri) mywar-1.0.0.war.
Upon deployment, things fail because a mywar-1.0.0.war is expected but a mywar.war was produced and made part of the EAR.
Therefore I get a deployment exception because file was not found.

What is happening here ?
I did not have this on Eclipse 3.5.1, m2eclipse 0.9.8, maven embedder 2.1.0... Using that configuration I can restart Eclipse without my J2EE Module Dependencies changing.
Is this a bug, can this be fixed ? If not what workaround can I apply ?
Urgent.
Thanks,
EDH
