An example of Maven EAR project consists of an EJB interface, an EJB implementation and a WAR


Posted on Friday Mar 06, 2015 at 10:43PM in Maven


The project consists of following principal modules:

  • eartest-ejb-api: holds an EJB local interface named Hello. packaging=jar. no dependency.

  • eartest-ejb-impl: holds an EJB implementation named HelloImpl which implements Hello. packaging=ejb. depends on eartest-ejb-api.

  • eartest-war: holds an Servlet which has an injection point of Hello interface. depends on eartest-ejb-api.

  • eartest-ear: holds above 3 modules in the EAR.

Whole project is can be obtained from https://github.com/lbtc-xxx/eartest .

Structure of eartest-ear module

$ tree eartest-ear/target/eartest-ear
eartest-ear/target/eartest-ear
|-- META-INF
|   `-- application.xml
|-- eartest-ejb-impl-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
|-- eartest-war-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war
`-- lib
    `-- eartest-ejb-api-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

2 directories, 4 files

Structure of eartest-war module

$ tree eartest-war/target/eartest-war
eartest-war/target/eartest-war
|-- META-INF
`-- WEB-INF
    `-- classes
        `-- eartest
            `-- war
                `-- MyServlet.class

5 directories, 1 file

MyServlet can reference eartest-ejb-api-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar because it’s placed under lib directory in the parent EAR. this packaging style is called as Skinny WAR.

Structure of eartest-ejb-api

$ tree eartest-ejb-api/target/classes
eartest-ejb-api/target/classes
`-- eartest
    `-- ejb
        `-- api
            `-- Hello.class

3 directories, 1 file

Structure of eartest-ejb-impl

$ tree eartest-ejb-impl/target/classes
eartest-ejb-impl/target/classes
|-- META-INF
|   `-- ejb-jar.xml
`-- eartest
    `-- ejb
        `-- impl
            `-- HelloImpl.class

4 directories, 2 files

A problem with IntelliJ IDEA

IntelliJ has an annoying issue: Maven support cannot handle skinny wars for EAR deployments : IDEA-97324. this brings unnecessary eartest-ejb-api into WEB-INF/lib inside the WAR and brings following exception. to avoid this, I need to put <scope>provided</scope> in dependency declaration for eartest-ejb-api in pom.xml of eartest-war.
