My EJB jar file requires additional classes that the default
publisher fails to include. So I wrote an ant build file to make
my jar file just how I want it.
I was working on creating ant targets to drop my custom jar file
in the JBoss deploy directory when, quite by accident, I
discovered that if I double clicked "JBoss v4.2 at localhost" in
the "Servers" view, it opened a property page with a section
called "Ant Publisher Properties".
However, I am unable to make this work and I can find no useful
documentation. Whatever I put in the "Build File" field, I get a
popup titled "Server Editor" that says "Property can not be found".
And if it did accept my build file, what else do I need to know?
What target will it attempt to call in order to publish?
So, what's the deal? Is this a broken feature? How can I make
this work for me? I would prefer to use the built-in publishing
features instead of having to remember to re-publish manually
with my own ant file.
Eclipse 3.4
org.eclipse.jst.server.generic.jboss v1.5.205
Thanks,
Jeff

I have the same problem with client JARs, because we use Data Transport
Objects to communicate clients and servers and they must be distributed in
the client JARs with the needed EJB interfaces.
We are migrating from a JBuilder project structure; JAR generation and
deployment is a real mess!!! With one more difficult task : generating an
uncompressed EAR/WAR strucure :-).
I look at .project files, and I found the <parameters> tag for builders...
Do you know what parameters have the EAR/WAR/JAR builders? Maybe here is
the solution.

Hi Daniel,
I think you have to modify "jboss323.xml". Maybe you can call your custom
buildfile depending on the project name.
Best regards
