Hibernate, Entity Mananager, Annotations version: 3.2GA
Glassfish 9 with MySQL 5

I am getting a NoClassDefFoundError on loading my application. The class referenced is or.jboss.util.file.ArchiveBrowser$Filter. Is this expected to by part of my deployment? Should I be including specific JBoss jars in my application?

deployed with moduleid = Hello2

yes, jboss-archive*.jar is a library, just like Apache commons whatever. Put it next to the hibernate3.jar
