help on jboss spring integration

[mattlf]

Hi

I have browsed the mailing list and spend some time experimenting unsuccesfully with jboss spring integration.

At this point I would greatly appreciate some help

I want to create a non-web / headless application that would run in jboss but whose logic is in POJOS using Spring. I am trying to get Jboss to bootstrap my Spring application context. I know how to do that in the case of a Web application. But In this particular case, there is no WAR file. There are only methods that I want to expose via EJB for other components to call them and methods I want to expose via JMX.

My project looks like the following:

myproject-jar
------- src / main / java / com / mycompany /..../ blabla.java
------- src / main / resources / myspringContext.xml ---> where I declare the wiring of my POJOS and the methods I export using org.springframework.jmx.export.MBeanExporter

myproject-ejb
here i use the Spring AutowiringInterceptor to expose the interface of myproject.jar so that they can be called remotely via EJB

myproject-ear packages myproject-ejb

I use Jboss-4.2.2.GA and Spring 2.5.6 and maven to compile & package

But when I copy the EAR in jboss, I don't see the JMX methods and understand that the spring context has not been loaded. I was hoping that the AutoWiring would load the Spring context...

Then I came accross the Spring - Jboss Integration wiki

I downloaded jboss-spring-jdk5-2.5.jar from sourceforge (It seems that 3.1 is only for jboss5 and i use jboss 4.2.2)

I created a directory jboss-spring-jdk5.deployer in jboss-4.2.2.GA/server/messaging
/deploy and copied jboss-spring-jdk5-2.5.jar into jboss-spring-jdk5.deployer directory

Then I added jboss-spring.xml to myproject-jar / src / main / resources / META-INF

In jboss-spring.xml, I just import myspringContext.xml

when i deploy the EAR to jboss I see the following error:

2008-11-13 20:37:30,743 3342 ERROR [org.jboss.deployment.MainDeployer] (main:) Could not initialise deployment: file:/home/mattlf/jboss-4.2.2.GA/server/messaging/deploy/jboss-spring-jdk5.deployer/
org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Failed to find META-INF/jboss-service.xml for archive jboss-spring-jdk5.deployer
at org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer.parseDocument(SARDeployer.java:616)
at org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer.init(SARDeployer.java:181)

I would really appreciate some help

Thank you

[alesj]

Read what the error msg says. ;-)

Copy jboss-service.xml from one of
complete deployer releases.
Or check JBossAS 4.x branches.

[mattlf]

Thank you for the tip. It helped

I downloaded jboss-spring-version4.zip from source forge
and replaced jboss-spring-jdk5.jar with jboss-spring-jdk5-2.5.jar found on sourceforge as well
and deployed everything in deploy / jboss-spring-jdk5.deployer

and it works (Jboss starts properly)

But when i deploy my EAR, it does not seem that the spring context is bootstaped
Yet I have jboss-spring.xml in META-INF

I would appreciate another tip

Right now, jboss-spring.xml is packaged with the EAR. Shall i put it as part of the MYPROJECT-JAR ?
Shall I rename MYPROJECT.JAR into MYPROJECT.spring ?


Here is my EAR

[alesj]

Yeah, you should have a .spring deployment in your ear:
- my.ear
-- some-beans.spring
--- META-INF
---- jboss-spring.xml
--- com/acme/beans/...

ps: this is a lot simpler in JBoss5 ;-)

[mattlf]

Unfortunately I can't upgrade to Jboss5 and need to get it done with Jboss4

Thank you again for your reply and again I 'll ask for a little bit more help:

How to get the EAR to package the .spring ?

Here is what I did:

I modified MYPROJECT-IMPL-JAR so that it generates a .spring artefact. In order to do that, I added the following to the POM of MYPROJECT-IMPL-JAR

<plugin>
 <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
 <artifactId>jboss-packaging-maven-plugin</artifactId>
 <!-- Enable packaging types and lifecycle bindings. -->
 <extensions>true</extensions>
 <configuration>
 <archiveName>MYPROJECT-IMPL-JAR</archiveName>
 <deploymentDescriptorFile>src/main/resources/META-INF/jboss-spring.xml</deploymentDescriptorFile>
 </configuration>
 <executions>
 <execution>
 <phase>package</phase>
 <goals>
 <goal>spring</goal>
 </goals>
 </execution>
 </executions>
 </plugin>

But I am not sure how to declare the module & dependency into the EAR

I did the following to the POM of MYPROJECT-EAR

<build>
 <finalName>MYPROJECT-EAR-1.0</finalName>
 <defaultGoal>package</defaultGoal>
 <!-- resources>
 <resource>
 <directory>../src/main/resources/META-INF</directory>
 <targetPath>META-INF</targetPath>
 <filtering>true</filtering>
 <includes>
 <include>jboss-spring.xml</include>
 </includes>
 </resource>
 </resources -->
 <plugins>
 <plugin>
 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
 <version>2.3.1</version>
 <configuration>
 <jboss>
 <version>4.2</version>
 <loader-repository>
 com.strateer.repositoryloader:loader=myproject-ear
 </loader-repository>
 </jboss>

 <defaultLibBundleDir>lib</defaultLibBundleDir>
 <modules>
 <ejbModule>
 <groupId>com.strateer.myproject</groupId>
 <artifactId>MYPROJECT-EJB-JAR</artifactId>
 </ejbModule>
 </modules>
 </configuration>
 </plugin>
 </plugins>
 </build>

 <dependencies>

 <dependency>
 <groupId>com.strateer.myproject</groupId>
 <artifactId>MYPROJECT-EJB-JAR</artifactId>
 <version>${applicationVersion}</version>

 </dependency>

 <dependency>
 <groupId>com.strateer.myproject</groupId>
 <artifactId>MYPROJECT-IMPL-JAR</artifactId>
 <version>${applicationVersion}</version>
 <type>spring</type>
 </dependency>

 </dependencies>

but compilation throws an error Unknown artifact type[spring]

Unfortunately I'm not a Maven expert. :-(

Try asking this on maven forum.
Or perhaps our 'Build system' forum.

But I would expect it's a simple config detail you need to setup.

[mattlf]

Hi Ales

Thanks again for your response

I feel I am close

The maven2 config is the following:

Add

<artifacttypemappings>
 <artifacttypemapping type="spring" mapping="jar"/>
</artifacttypemappings>

to configuration in pom of EAR

I now see the following when copying the ear into deploy. But I still don't see the Spring JMX that i declared in the jmx console. So the spring context is not bootstraped

I wonder if all JAR dependencies to MYPROJECT-IMPL.spring should also be named as .spring ?

I am going to try

No, only the one's where you have jboss-spring.xml file in META-INF.

[mattlf]

For some reasons I can not get it working
I trimed down a small project to the bare minimum
and here is the trace in jboss (doesn't see to bootstrap)
i am running out of ideas

Why is this still in ear/META-INF?

This should be a deployable unit, not part of 'helpers' classpath.

See my structure I posted previously:

- my.ear
-- some-beans.spring
--- META-INF
---- jboss-spring.xml
--- com/acme/beans/...

No lib. ;-)

[mattlf]

Still it doesn't work. I must be doing something wrong. Maybe there should not be a dot in the version number MYPROJECT-JAR-1.0.spring ?

Here is the exploded EAR and .spring

I doubt that dot is the cause.

How does your application.xml look like?
Perhaps you need to declare .spring jar as apps module:
(pseudo code, as it's been a while since I've done some real .ear)

<app>
 <module>
 <jar>MYPROJECT-JAR-1.0.spring</jar>
 </module>
</app>

And you don't need to package spring jar with your app,
it's already part of SpringDeployer.

btw: try testing SpringDeployer, by deploying simple jboss-spring.xml
directly into deploy directory.
