How to tell weblogic that some JARs are located in fixed positions?

Vote count:

I have a weblogic application (EAR) that references a Java EE library deployed on the same server. (referenced in the web-application.xml)

The Java EE library is targeted correctly to the weblogic server with my application.

The Java EE library points to a JAR (javaEElib.jar) file that is predeployed on the system in a specific path location and "javaEElib.jar" references in it's Manifest more JARs that are pre-deployed on the system in fixed locations. The reference in the Manifest is relative (../../libs/someOtherJar.jar).

My problem is that when i deploy my application it takes the referenced Java EE library JAR "javaEElib.jar" and puts it in its stage directory but in runtime it can't find the relative JARs (someOtherJar.jar) because those are not copied to the stage.

Is there some way to tell weblogic that "javaEElib.jar" is located in a fixed path on the system instead of copying it to the stage (so that it can find the relative sub jars) ?

Thanks
