Maven jars but publish locally but are copied into exported war file [message #224978]

Hello,

I'm having a problem with the latest WTP in Ganymede and an existing
project originally set up with a previous version.

The project refers to jars in a local Maven repository via extensions of a
"MAVEN_REPO" classpath variable as follows:

<classpathentry exported="true" kind="var"
path="MAVEN_REPO/spring/jars/spring-1.2.6.jar">
<attributes>
<attribute name="org.eclipse.jst.component.dependency"
value="/WEB-INF/lib"/>
</attributes>
</classpathentry>

MAVEN_REPO is set to C:/java/maven-repository in Preferences -> Java ->
Build Path -> Classpath Variables.

I have ticked all the checkboxes in the project's "Java EE Module
Dependencies" tab but the jars are not copied to
" workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp 0\wtpwebapps\pa-web\WEB-INF\lib ".

It seems like configuration for what get published locally has changed
between WTP versions from ${project}\.settings\.component to
${project}\.classpath (as shown above). I have removed the old entries
from the .component file. Are there any other old artifacts lurking around
that might mess this up?

I found this wiki page, but it seems like overkill to have to define a
"User Library" just to get the jars deployed locally given that they are
already on the project's build path:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/ClasspathEntriesPublishExportSupport

If I "Export..." as "web/WAR File" the jars are included in the war file
in the right place.

Has anyone had the same problem? Any ideas on how to resolve the problem?

My set up is:

Eclipse 3.4.1 (and the WTP that comes with it)
Maven 1.0.2
Tomcat 6.0.18
JDK 1.6.0_10

Thanks.
Ashley
