Description

Create dynamic web project and create ivy configuration.

This is a relevant part of ivy.xml that can be used to demonstrate bug.

    <configurations>
        <conf name="default" />
        <conf name="compile" />
        <conf name="runtime" />
        <conf name="test" />
        <conf name="sources" />
    </configurations>

    <dependencies>

        <dependency org="javax.jms" name="jms" rev="1.1" conf="compile->default" />
        
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-aop" rev="2.5.6" conf="runtime->default" />

        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-jms" rev="2.5.6" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-web" rev="2.5.6" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-webmvc" rev="2.5.6" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.aspectj" name="aspectjrt" rev="1.6.5" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.aspectj" name="aspectjweaver" rev="1.6.5" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-context-support" rev="2.5.6" conf="runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-test" rev="2.5.6" conf="test->default" />
        <dependency org="org.springframework" name="spring-jdbc" rev="2.5.6" conf="test,compile->default" />
        <dependency org="commons-fileupload" name="commons-fileupload" rev="1.2.1" conf="test,compile,runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="commons-io" name="commons-io" rev="1.4" conf="test,compile,runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="dom4j" name="dom4j" rev="1.6.1" conf="test,compile,runtime->default" />
        <dependency org="javax.servlet" name="jstl" rev="1.2" conf="compile->default" />

        <exclude org="xml-apis" module="xml-apis" />

        <override org="junit" module="junit" rev="4.5" />
        <override org="org.slf4j" module="slf4j-api" rev="1.5.6" />

    </dependencies>

Scenario 1

Steps

• go to the Java Build Path and reorder libraries (last tab under Java Build Path) in the following order:

1. source folder
2. JRE System library
3. Apache Tomcat
4. runtime
5. compile

• under J2EE Module dependecies we mark ivy.xml [compile] for export
• we can see that compile classpath container contains libraries like aopalliance, commons-fileupload, etc. (more than 4 jars)
• publish direclty to the tomcat installation (Do not use workspace as server location. You have to setup server path and deploy path.)

Result

• under TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\APPNAME\WEB-INF\lib we get:
• jms-1.1.jar
• jstl-1.2.jar
• spring-jdbc-2.5.6.jar

Scenario 2

Steps

• go to the Java Build Path and reorder libraries such that compile comes before runtime:

1. source folder
2. JRE System library
3. Apache Tomcat
4. compile
5. runtime

• publish project to tomcat installation

Result

• under {TOMCAT_HOME}

  \webapps{APPNAME}\WEB-INF\lib we get all of the libraries that we can see under compile configuration in ivy classpath container

The first scenario demonstrates the bug and should be fixed:

• dependencies marked for J2EE export into WEB-INF/lib should be fully exported in all circumstances and Java Build Path ordering should not have influence on it
