Question: You have created a Java project with a binary jar and have added a dependency on this project from your ear project. When you export the EAR, the classes in the jar are not exported into the jar in the ear. Is this a bug? Answer: In Rational Application Developer version 6, a module dependency was added when an entry was made to the .classpath file of a project. Consequently, during import, a project was needed to be created with the binary jar in it (in the same workspace as the project that the customer was working on). This practice is no longer needed in Rational Application Developer 7, as the usage of binary modules has been simplified, following these steps:
Now you will see that the Rad7BinaryTestJava.jar has been exported correctly, with all the class files in it. For more information, review the following developerWorks article written by Jason Sholl and Gary Karasiuk: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/07/0619_karasiuk_sholl/ |
