Extending Binding Components using Maven2 JBI Plugin

[Andreas Schaefer]

Hi Geeks




Is there any way to force the Maven2 JBI Plugin to include an archive?

I tried to extend an existing ServiceMix JMS Binding Component but ran into problems using Maven2 JBI Plugin to generate the jbi.xml file and to create the installer archive. Unfortunately the plugin checks which archives it is going to include and refuses to include any other Binding Component to be included including the JAR archive of a Binding Component. Now that makes it hard to extend an extending BC and I could only do it by writing my own jbi.xml and putting the base JMS JAR archive into src/main/jbi/lib directory. Unfortunately now I need to make sure that I have to manage the archives myself instead of relying on Maven dependencies. In addition the Maven2 JBI Plugin web site does not document the configuration properties like "generateJbiDescriptor". I had to download the source and go through the source code in order to know how to configure the configuration of the plugin.
