I was working on an application that was built in Jboss Esb. I changed my source code and uploaded the jar, which was built using ant files.
As soon as I uploaded the file, Jboss bombed while starting it. It threw the exception mentioned below
The import com.XYZ.adapter.abc cannot be resolved.
I am new to JBOSS Esb. It was an urgent requirement and I needed to fix it ASAP. I did not have any idea to solve the issue in JBOSS ESB. I was cusring JBOSS and developer who thought to use the application. So I had to depend on Mr Reliable Google.
I search on google, and most of the people said that I have not build the jar in the correct manner. Whereas I was sure that I have build it correctly. I researched more. When Google stopped responding to my queries with satisfactory answers, then I started searching the answers at my own, and finally I found the solution for the problem.
I found that my class file did not have corresponding import statement(Which I lost while merging the file with version control tool). But my question was then how I got jar file. So I troubleshooted the ant scripts and found following.
-> My ant script was not deleting old class files. So instead compiling java source file, it was zipping already compiled files.
-> My Eclipse project did not show error, because auto building was disabled.
-> My Eclipse project and Ant Script was building class file at the same location. I.e. Both were building at ${basedir}/bin.
Keep it in mind, whatever technology you are using, it is based on one specific language. Irrespective of technology, the language concepts will always hold true.
The import com.XYZ.adapter.abc cannot be resolved.
Error listed above shows that there are compilation problems with the jar, so rebuild the jar with additional care.
