Introduction

Shared libraries are Petals artifacts that allow to mutualize Java librairies and make them usable by several Petals components.
A component can use a shared library if, and only if, it is associated with it.
Such an association can be done through several ways:

• With the Petals Maven plug-in (useful in continuous integration).
• By hand: it consists in adding an element in the jbi.xml of the component.
• With the studio.

Only the last case is described here.

Using the studio

In the studio's menu, click the icon showing a jar with a star inside.

A dialog opens up.
