    How to use third party JARs in Wildfly 8.2 during runtime.

    jboss234

      Our application's EAR has War file for web application and JAR for EJB module. It uses apache, struts, json, pdf, xmls, etc dependencies from external directories (not part of code base).

      Currently these dependencies configured in run.bat using classpath references. It works find with JBoss 4.0.3 server.

       

      Can I refer these external JARs same way in wildfly.

       

      Thanks,

          You can put them all in a module, and add the reference to jboss-deployment-structure.xml, or an EE subsystem global module (if you want them available to all applications.

           

          See https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY8/Class+Loading+in+WildFly

            Is it possible to set all these dependencies in classpath before starting Wildfly server.

              There is no "classpath" as such. Earlier versions of JBoss, some other EE servers and Tomcat use hierarchical classloading, where adding libraries to the initialclassloader would make them available everywhere. Wildfly uses modular classloading (as OSGi does too), so adding things to the initial classloader does not make them available everywhere.

               

              If you want the libraries available to all applications, you need to create a module and add it to the EE subsystem global modules list.

                Sorry for late reply.

                 

                Its working after creating a module and adding it to the EE subsystem global modules list.

                 

                Thanks

                  Hey D P.

                   

                  I'm running into the same exact problem: importing 3rdparty libs such as eclipse paho, milo, vert.x ...

                   

                  Can you make a brief explaination of your procedure?

                   

                  Thank you very much!

                  merry xmas,

                    Hi James,

                                     I have created Modules and added module dependencies for my subsystem. I get an error when trying to connect to a Business Objects system from my ejb submodule using 50+ jar files and windowsAD. I added all the jar files to one module and referenced that in the jboss-deployment-structure.xml file. Below is the error message I get.

                    I see that javax.security.auth.login is contained in rt.jar file from java and I thought the subdeployment was not able to read that and added that to a new module and still get the above error.
