> Hi,
> it's not possible to define an Class-Path element in the WARs manifest, if it's a directory.  I try to access jar files packed in the EARs lib/ directory from within a WAR module.
> e.g. this will work:
> Class-Path: a.jar b.jar
> but this doesn't work:
> Class-Path: lib/
> If a directory is specifyed, I receive the following error:
> 15:20:13,170 ERROR [DirectoryHotDeployer] Unable to deploy: Manifest class path
> entries must end with the .jar extension (J2EE 1.4 Section 8.2): module=../
> org.apache.geronimo.common.DeploymentException: Manifest class path entries must
>  end with the .jar extension (J2EE 1.4 Section 8.2): module=../
>         at org.apache.geronimo.deployment.DeploymentContext.addManifestClassPath
> (DeploymentContext.java:419)
> ...
> I think this is definitely an error because the JEE5 specification section 8.2.1 explicitely allows directories in manifest Class-Path entries.
