3rd-party jars in .wtpmodules [message #95217]

How should 3rd-party jars be specified in the .wtpmodules file?
Furthermore, how should the WTP component builder be told to put a
3rd-party jar in the APP-INF/LIB directory for a deployable weblogic ear
and the root for a deployable jBoss ear?

Hi,

Maybe this will help. My understanding is that there is no need to
register the 3rd-party jar in .wtpmodules file. Just drop it in the EAR
project and set up the manifest classpath for the project via Project ->
Properties -> Java JAR Dependencies. The .wtpmodules file is only for J2EE
module projects or Utility Jar project in Eclipse.

Good Luck!

the same problem with 3rd-party libs for tomcat.

It's very difficult to explain why people use ide which has as many
primitive bugs. Developers couldn't be garanted that they would have
posibility to create servlet, because web.xml has wrong links. They
couldn't use 3party lib - because eclipse couldn't deploy it. IDE
doesn't support connection to the most of DB.

Defenitely WTP isn't tools for development j2ee application.
