Deployment of Resource Adapter embedded in a War

[ramanujaraghavan]

I have  a need to bundle the reource adapter as part of my war. I am not able to get this working. Any Idea on what should I do. If I understand your answer correctly the resource adapter is deployed as a separate one. In couple of documentations it is said to put as part of WEB-INF/lib and it will take but when I did that I got an error as

12:57:11,844 ERROR [org.jboss.msc.service.fail] (MSC service thread 1-1) MSC000001: Failed to start service jboss.deployment.unit."TestAppServletProject.war".POST_MODULE: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.unit."TestAppServletProject.war".POST_MODULE: JBAS018733: Failed to process phase POST_MODULE of deployment "TestAppServletProject.war"

You need to add a dependency from the WAR to the RAR - read: https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Class+Loading+in+AS7

[ramanujaraghavan]

When I add it as part of the dependencies I could get this Resource adapter deployed and I could access the same. However, when I am trying to bundle this resource adapter as part of the Web Archive (.war) I am not able to get the resource adapter deployed any advise on the same.

[ramanujaraghavan]

The Resource adapter is not getting deployed as part of the WAR however the same can be added as part of the EAR. I have created a simple ear that contains both the resource adapter and the client application. This solves the purpose of having the resouce adapter and the client application in the same context.
