How do I build a J2EE EAR file in RAD using Maven?

Using Rational Application Developer 开发者_如何学运维to create a J2EE application, I create a project for my EAR and a project for my WAR - following the usual project structure created by RAD.

So, how do I create a Maven build file that builds the EAR with the WAR inside, etc - ready to deploy. Build needs to work when kicked-off from Hudson.

If your EAR is a standard EAR, then "simply" use the Maven EAR plugin. If you need more specific guidance, please ask a more specific question.

I do not have any experiance with RAD + Maven. But I had tried WSAD + ANT, and I had to use specific WSAD ant tasks to get this done. So, same would apply for the RAD + Maven scenario. I think this may give some hint.
