Hi to all,
I've a simple question about the packaging of an EAR archive.

Suppose that I have something like:

EAR
|--ejbjar.jar
|--war.war
|--client.war

why is there the need of writing in the application.xml file descriptor that I have a client that use the classes of the ejbjar module? with

 <module>
 <java>client.jar</java>
</module>

I tried to deploy my swing client without declaring it in the application.xml and everything runs well!!
So, why declare it?
