Can module depend on an EAR ?

[sergiu_pienar]

Can a jboss module declare a dependency on a certain EAR ? Not sure if this is possible (or even reasonable from a design POV).

In my module.xml I tried with

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


<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="com.myModule">
  <resources>
    <resource-root path="myModule.jar"/>
  <resource-root path="smpp.jar"/>
  </resources>
  
  <dependencies>
    <module name="org.apache.log4j"/>
  <module name="deployment.all-5.5.ear" export="TRUE" />
  </dependencies>
  
</module>

But the classes defined in myModule.jar can not access the classes from the all-5.5.ear .

no it cannot.

Modules are statically defined where deployments are dynamically defined during deployment process.

so dynamic module can depend on static one but not other way around.
