How to write the jboss-deployment-structure.xml file for a war file which should include the third party jar files

[hari309965]

{code}

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.1">

          <deployment>

             <exclusions>

                  <module name="org.apache.log4j" />

                  <module name="com.sun.ssl.internal.ssl" />

                 <module name="com.myjars.jcommon" />

                 <module name="com.myjars.jfreechart" />

             </exclusions>

          </deployment>         

        <!-- </sub-deployment>-->

</jboss-deployment-structure>

It is getting the message on the jboss console for this tag <module name="com.myjars.jfreechart" />

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jfree.data.time.RegularTimePeriod from [Module "deployment.OrionLite.wa

r:main" from Service Module Loader]

I have created the modules for those two jar files But I am getting the class not found exception for this <jfreechart.jar > file

Could you please suggest me where should did I go wrong?

HI Hari,

    First of all you will need to create a JFreechart  custom "module" as mentioned in the following link: 

    http://middlewaremagic.com/jboss/?p=1933    How to create custom modules in JBossAS7 to load different slots of the jars ?

    It means you can create  a directory "$JBOSS_HOME/com/myjars/jfreechart/main"  then paste your "jfreechart.jar" & "jcommon.jar" file inside the  "$JBOSS_HOME/com/myjars/jfreechart/main" directory and then create following kind of "$JBOSS_HOME/com/myjars/jfreechart/main/module.xml" 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="com.myjars.jfreechart">
       <resources>
           <resource-root path="jfreechart.jar"/>
           <resource-root path="jcommon.jar"/>
       </resources>
</module>

    Restart JBossAS7, Then you can add your Custom Module inside your application using "WEB-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml" file as following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure>
    <deployment>
         <dependencies>
              <module name="com.myjars.jfreechart" />
                  <module name="com.myjars.jcommon" />
        </dependencies>
    </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>
