Hi everyone.

Is it possible to add shared libs to a payara micro uberjar ?

I have more than one war file that I bundle in a uberjar pajara mirco distribution. I do not want to repeat the shared jars that is in the wars, so I am wondering to define extra jars to be included in the ubjerjar ?

Thanks

Hi Phillip,

Unfortunately, it's not possible to do it in a straightforward way so far, since version 171 introduced a hierarchical classloader to load internal classes and doesn't provide straightforward way to extend the classpath. We plan to support this in the future. Until then, you might be successful with a workaround I described here, with some more details about how classloading works in Payara Micro: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/payara-forum/A7YghjS12u8/1shiELDpBAAJ
