Hello everybody,

I am building a Modelio Plugin and am encountering a problem during the build which i cannot fix. I have some C# code which I have bridged to Java using jni4net. Basically, this outputs two jar-files and four dlls. With the standard maven archetype, i can build this project just fine. But when i try to instantiate the classes exposed by the jar-files in Modelio itself (after adding the module), i get a ClassDefNotFound exception.

Then i checked out the jmdac and realized the jars and dlls were not added to the /lib folder. I extended the assembly.xml file to package those files alongside commons-lang3-3.1.jar in the lib folder.

<!--  Copy the jni4net dependencies -->
<fileSet>
    <directory>${project.basedir}</directory>
    <outputDirectory>${project.name}/lib</outputDirectory>
    <includes>
        <include>*.jar</include>
        <include>*.dll</include>
    </includes>
</fileSet>

A quick build shows correct packaging. Still, i thought i have to add those files to the ClassPath in the module.xml. First, I added the jni4net standard jar:

<ClassPath>
    <PathEntry path="lib/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}.jar"/>
    <PathEntry path="lib/jni4net.j-0.8.8.0.jar"/>
    <PathEntry path="lib/commons-lang3-3.1.jar"/>
</ClassPath>

It still builds without a problem. However, when i add the other jar, it suddenly doesn't build anymore:

<ClassPath>
    <PathEntry path="lib/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}.jar"/>
    <PathEntry path="lib/jni4net.j-0.8.8.0.jar"/>
    <PathEntry path="lib/commons-lang3-3.1.jar"/>
    <PathEntry path="lib/SysMLDataModel.j4n.jar"/>
</ClassPath>

and mvn install -X will throw an Exception and show the following error:

[INFO] Updating content of [...]\src\main\conf\module.xml

This seems to happen because during build, the jar-files and the dlls cannot be associated. But i am stuck as to when exactly and where exactly the module configureation goal searches for the files. maybe i have to copy them to the correct location?

Any help would be appreciated.
