Java 6 Enterprise project (WAR) in Maven3 (Modules)_问答_开发者

I have Java 6 Enterprise project (WAR) in Maven3 created base on

http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnex-book/reference/multimodule-web-spring.html
http://www.znetdevelopment.com/blogs/2009/02/18/j2ee-project-structures

with this structure:

EnterpriseProject (Super POM)
- ep-model (produces JAR)
- ep-persist (produces JAR)
- ep-service (produces JAR)
- ep-ui (produces JAR)
- ep-webapp (puts it all together and produces WAR)

with dependencies (->):

ep-webapp -> ep-ui -> ep-model
                   -> ep-service -> ep-model
                                 -> ep-persist -> ep-model

When I run Enterprise Project goal "package", war is created in EnterpriseProject\ep-webapp\target\ and this war contains all needed libraries: ep-model, ep-persist, ep-service, ep-ui.

Q1) Is this solutions right?

Q2) How should I add additional modules (how set dependencies)?

ep-common (produces JAR)
ep-ws (webservices; produces JAR)

Should I only add ep-common dependency into ep-weapp pom (just for adding ep-common lib to war) or everywhere where I use ep-common?

ep-webapp -> ep-ui -> ep-model
                   -> ep-service -> ep-model
                                 -> ep-persist -> ep-model 
          -> ep-common
          -> ep-ws

Thanks a lot for tips

Q1) Is this solutions right?

Seems a well-structured set of POMs to me.

Q2) How should I add additional modules (how set dependencies)? [ep-common, ep-ws]

As for ep-commons, I'm guessing it's stuff common to all modules (common types, exceptions definitions and such) — if so, you need to reference it wherever you use it, otherwise Maven won't be able to compile it, as it creates classpath basing on dependencies. I understand your worry (that you have to repeat the dependency many times), but since you use variables ${project.groupId} and ${project.version}, you are not running the risk of referencing different version of the same module in different dependent projects.

If you are a Maven purist, and I'll risk a claim you might be, you could add the ep-commons to a <dependencyManagement> section of the root POM, but that will only save you one line in each POM (for version).

One notice: if you're going to use the release plugin in future, the "${}" references will have to be replaced by hard-coded group id and version strings, but the plugin takes care of that itself.

As for ep-ws, I'm not quite sure what's there (JAX-WS classes generated from WSDLs?). If only that, then do the same as for ep-commons.

Thank you MaDa for your clear answer. So if I understand correctly I can (if I'm purist :-)) add all dependencies also into root POM into dependencyManagement and remove version from I children where is given dependency used.

I have the last question about ep-ws. Probably I will use SpringWS & JAXB (or Castor) (because I prefer top-down approach and manual work without generating class by tool and I don't know if it is possible by JAX-WS). Q3 ep-ws depends on ep-model and ep-service (transitively on ep-persist), but generally not on ep-webapp but I need add this dependency into ep-webapp just for adding ep-ws library into war, am'I right?

So I reworked my project and I hope that this is quite ok:
