Multiple Web Apps in EAR

[c_eric_ray]

If I wanted to deploy multiple web applications as part of a single enterprise application, would my application.xml file look something like the following.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application version="5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd">
  <module>
    <web>
      <web-uri>webapp1.war</web-uri>
      <context-root>/w1</context-root>
    </web>
  </module>
  <module>
    <ejb>my-ejb.jar</ejb>
  </module>
 
  <module>
    <web>
      <web-uri>webapp2.war</web-uri>
      <context-root>/w2</context-root>
    </web>
  </module>
  <module>
    <ejb>my-ejb.jar</ejb>
  </module>
</application>

Yes (although don't repeat the my-ejb.jar mapping in there).

Thanks for the response - another quick question.

So if I do the following... and remove the second definition of the my-ejb.jar module

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application version="5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd">
  <module>
    <web>
      <web-uri>webapp1.war</web-uri>
      <context-root>/w1</context-root>
    </web>
  </module>
  <module>
    <ejb>my-ejb.jar</ejb>
  </module>
 
  <module>
    <web>
      <web-uri>webapp2.war</web-uri>
      <context-root>/w2</context-root>
    </web>
  </module>

</application>

Then the webapp2.war still has access to the EJBs defined in the my-ejb.jar module?

Yes, it will.
