This is kinda expected indeed. Unchecking the "Generate"
checkbox makes m2e-wtp generate the files in the source directory, overwriting
any existing files.
I think there are 2 non-exclusive approaches to the problem
:
- either add some preferences to keep the original application.xml
during conversion (meaning adding <generateApplicationXml>false<generateApplicationXml>
to the pom.xml)
- the ear conversion participant should at least extract
the security roles from the original application.xml and convert them as
maven-ear-plugin configuration. However, the modules would still be removed,
since the conversion mechanism doesn't currently support dependency conversion.
could you please open a feature request in BZ?
Fred
PS : thanks for using the right ML :-)

I attach a sample workspace consisting on a EAR with a web project. Both
have deployment descriptor: the EAR's deployment descriptor has the web
module and a security role, and the Web project's deployment descriptor
has a context parameter and a list of welcome pages.
To recreate, I did this:
1. Uncheck both options under Preferences > Maven > Java EE
Integration
2. Import the projects in the attached file
3. Convert the Web project to maven (Configure > Convert to Maven project).
Use war for packaging. The deployment descriptor is left untouched (which
is fine)
4. Convert the EAR project to maven, using ear for packaging. The original
deployment descriptor is replaced by a new one, which has only the display
name. So the security roles and the modules are lost.
Is the result in point 4 the expected behavior? I'm using m2e
1.2,0, m2e-wtp 0.16.0 and Java EE package for Juno SR1.
Note: the original main was sent to m2e-dev mail list, but I believe this
is more related to m2e-wtp, therefore I'm sending this to m2e-wtp-dev mail
list.

| application.xml overwritten? |
Hi,
I just saw a question Roberto's asked on IRC yesterday (sorry I missed
it) : "Have you seen in the past, or recently, problems when converting
an EAR project to Maven? Specifically, if the EAR has deploymentt descriptor
with contents, it gets overwritten by a new deployment descriptor with
no content"
Only thing I can think of is if you unchecked Preferences > Maven >
Java EE Integration > "Generate application.xml under the build
directory". But even then, the application.xml should have some content
(at least the <application> root).
Roberto, can you try reproducing the error with a sample project?
