java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ws/rs/core/Response$Status in module

[tisaksen]

I have the following in my (jose4j) module.xml :

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.3" name="org.jose4j">

  <resources>

    <resource-root path="jose4j-0.6.2.jar"/>

  </resources>

  <dependencies>

    <module name="org.slf4j"/>

    <module name="javax.api"/>

    <module name="javax.ws.rs.api"/>

  </dependencies>

</module>

Any suggestions as to how I can figure out why my javax.ws.rs.api module dependency isn't kicking in?

I did get NoClassDefFoundError for slf4j and added that without any problems but javax.ws.rs.api is causing problems.

full stracktrace?

[tisaksen]

It worked when I added export="true":

    <module name="javax.ws.rs.api" export="true"/>

I don't understand why though?

[ctomc]

without full stacktrace it is hard to say what is going on.

but from what you say I would guess that export=true helped because dependency you are missing is in a module that depends on your org.jose4j module and not the other way around.

export=true just exports module dependency also to its caller.
