Adding JBoss AS 7 modules on Eclipse using Maven or JBoss Tools

Question

I\'m migrating my project to JBoss AS 7, and I\'ve read a little about its modules. My problem is simple (I think), I have no idea how to include this modules during develop

Answer 1

Take a look at these links:

• APIs: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jboss.as/jboss-as-spec-api/7.1.1.Final

• Artifacts provided by the server: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jboss.as/jboss-as-api/7.1.0.CR1

• All other artifacts (I'm not sure which will be the most suitable for you): http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jboss.as

Answer 2

I would say adding the hibernate-core as "provided" on your pom and adding

Dependency: org.hibernate

to your META-INF/MANIFEST.MF or

<dependencies>
    <module name="org.hibernate" />
</dependencies>

to jboss-deployment-structure.xml is the way to go. This way you get runtime access to Hibernate bundled with JBoss without including them in your deployment. Just make sure you use the same version of Hibernate that comes with JBoss (Hibernate 4.0.1 for JBoss AS 7.1.1). Also check out the Developer Guide.
