visibility of META-INF/* in modules ?

[jbride]

Hi,

   the comment:  "By default items in META-INF of a dependency are not accessible" is made in this this wiki:  https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Developer+Guide#DeveloperGuide-EARClassLoading

  I'm wondering if it is possible to over-ride this default ?

  In particular, I am attempting to create a module (name="org.jbpm") in AS7 of jbpm5 libraries to include jbpm-human-task-core-5.4.jar. 

  jbpm-human-task-core-5.4.jar contains a file called META-INF/Taskorm.xml.

  upon deploying an EJB that has a dependency on my new "org.jbpm" module, the following is logged :

INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 19) HHH000360: Unable to resolve mapping file [META-INF/Taskorm.xml]

how can I either :

  1)  configure my "org.jbpm" module to expose META-INF/Taskorm.xml to it's dependencies

        or

   2)  configure the jboss-deployment-structure.xml of my EJBs that depend on the "org.jbpm" module to import META-INF/Taskorm.xml

thank you,

jeff

Hi,

sure it is possible

take a look at https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Class+Loading+in+AS7

what you are looking for is explicitly importing paths you want to get included when importing module.

for example something like this:

<dependencies>

      <module name="org.mymodule" >

        <imports>

          <include path="META-INF/*.xml" />

        </imports>

      </module>

    </dependencies>

thanks for the quick response Tomaz.

I actually tried explicitly importing but was not able to get it to work .... but your response confirms that this is the correct approach.

I'll keep playing around with it ..... thank you!

Hi,

show us your config/structure/idea you have so far so we can help you out better..

Hi Tomaz ... i've tried a few different combinations but no luck thus far.

here is a snippet that defines my  "org.jbpm" module :

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="org.jbpm">

    <resources>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-bam-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-bpmn2-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-flow-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-flow-builder-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-gwt-shared-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-persistence-jpa-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-workitems-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

        <resource-root path="jbpm-human-task-core-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>

    </resources >

    <dependencies>

        <module name="org.drools" export="true" />

        <module name="org.jbpm.configuration" export="true" />

    </dependencies>

</module>

jbpm-human-task-core-5.4.0-SNAPSHOT.jar contains META-INF/Taskorm.xml

here is a snippet of the jboss-deployment-structure.xml for my EJB that depends on "org.jbpm" :

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

    <deployment>

        <dependencies>

            <module name="org.jboss.processFlow" />

            <module name="org.jbpm">

                <imports>

                    <include path="META-INF/*.xml"/>

                    <include path="META-INF/*.conf"/>

                </imports>

            </module>

        </dependencies>

    </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

thank you Tomaz.  Anything look like it might be a problem ?

Hi,

that looks totaly as it should

it think you might have problem somewhere else.

Maybe something else is not loading properly, or Taskorm needs some other classpath dependancies...

try enabling trace logging for "org.jboss.modules" it might help you find missing peace.

Hi Jeff,

Have you found a solution to your problem? I just bumped into this problem yesterday as well and found your thread while searching. I am trying to put JBPM libraries in a common location (either as a module or separate app) that other web apps would depend on, but I am also seeing very similar messages:

6:39:10,864 INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (MSC service thread 1-4) HHH000360: Unable to resolve mapping file [META-INF/JBPMorm-JPA2.xml]

16:39:10,865 INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (MSC service thread 1-4) HHH000360: Unable to resolve mapping file [META-INF/ProcessInstanceInfoMapping-JPA2.xml]

16:39:10,866 INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (MSC service thread 1-4) HHH000360: Unable to resolve mapping file [META-INF/ExtraIndexes.hbm.xml]

These are in the jbpm-persistence-jpa-5.4.0.Final.jar library and I able to see them:

jar tvf jbpm-persistence-jpa-5.4.0.Final.jar

I'm having exactly this issue as well, although this is the only place I've found it referred to. In my case,

10:34:35,332 INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 565) HHH000360: Unable to resolve

mapping file [META-INF/JBPMorm.xml]

10:34:35,332 INFO  [org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 565) HHH000360: Unable to resolve

mapping file [META-INF/Taskorm.xml]

Anyone been able to work this out? I tried adding the import for the  meta-inf, but no success. Does anyone know where we could download the various modules for jbpm?
