Exclude javax.jms from JBOSS EAP 7

[dilipraj]

I'm trying to deploy WAR that already has javax.jms library included. And apparently, Jboss EAP 7 also loads it's javax.jms library. I am particularly interested in ConnectionFactory class which I can see two instances loaded during runtime

vfs:/content/nipe_simulator_dev.war/WEB-INF/lib/jms-1.1.jar/javax/jms/ConnectionFactory.class and

com.dbs.nipe.engine.sender.MQSender:50 - :243-, rxnTransRef=null, jar:file:/Users/dilipraj/ipe/app/jboss/modules/system/layers/base/javax/jms/api/main/jboss-jms-api_2.0_spec-1.0.0.Final-redhat-1.jar!/javax/jms/ConnectionFactory.class

I'm getting "Cannot cast to ConnectionFactory" exception.

So, how can exclude implicitly included jms library from jboss so that my application uses the library (jar) included with the WAR itself?

Create jboss-deployment-structure.xml in your application's WEB-INF folder. And paste following content in it -

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

<jboss-deployment-structure>

<deployment>

      <exclusions>

                <module name="javax.jms.api"/>

      </exclusions>

    </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

Make a build & deploy your WAR.

Hi.

That doesn't work. I can still see both the JARs loaded.

best thing to do is to remove your JMS jar from your application.

if you are using maven, jms-api dependency you are using, should be set to scope=provided

You can also not enable messaging support in app server by running with standalone.xml instead of standalone-full.xml

but that will disable all JMS related functionality, for example MDBs wouldn't work anymore.

I did that. I removed the JMS jar from my application. But it resulted an error while deploying the WAR.  NoClassDefFoundError: javax/jms/Destination
