jar files as deployments resources in server view

[aeternitas]

I don't know if this is question to JBoss Tools team, maybe to Eclipse... At first I will try to ask here.

I have project, which consists of

- Dynamic Web Project "Presentation"

- EJB Project "Engine"

-Enterprise Application Project "EARPackaging".

Last one packs both EJB and Web Project to EAR. Now, I add this EAR project to JBoss Runtime Server (6.x or 7.0, does not matter for now).

Now in Enterprise Application Project, in EarContent I create 'lib' folder, and add there freemarker.jar, now when I expand related resource added to Runtime Server in servers view, I see

JBoss 6.x Runtime Server 
     - EARPackaging
          - Engine
          - freemarker.jar
          - Presentation

most of jars from EarContent\lib folder is not added here (and all of them should not, imho). I noticed that only freemarker and yuicompressor are added as ear resource (and my EarContent\lib has 41 jar files)... Why is it so? In Deployment Assembly of Enterprise Application Project I don't see these jars to remove.

This simplified example is attached. I used Eclipse 3.7, night build of JBoss Tooles 3.3 (and actually I had the same issue with JBoss Tools 3.2, but as I menation at the beginning, I don't know if it is related to JBoss Tools at all)

The jars listed in the view is what gets identified by WTP as EJB runtime modules. It does not list *all* jars.

What is actually in the deployed archive ?

when I deploy the project attached in first post to the server I get the following structure inside:

EARProject.ear

     lib

          freemarker.jar

     Engine.jar

     META-INF

     Presentation.war

lib is the folder when we place common jars. Freemarker itself can be downloaded here, and it is not ejb module, but something should be inside its jar that makes Eclipse think differently...

I got it: both freemarker and yuicompressor jars can be used from command line, so they have Main-Class property set in MANIFEST.MF. When I remove this property both files are not listed in server view anymore.

Thank you for assisting!
