removing a jar from web app libraries [message #192212]

Hi,
Using WTP 2.0 (wtp-I-I200705031628-200705031628), how do I remove a jar from
the web app libraries? I tried to simply delete the file from the file
system, but then the project would not build (missing required jar).
Thanks,
Zohar.

Hello

This looks like a bug.

Workaround may look like this:
You can remove Web App Libraries from build path, delete jars you want
to, and then add all others to build path again.

HTH,
Chris

This is a known issue. There are a couple of decent work-arounds available:

1. Open the Navigator view, find and delete the jar there. You will
notice the Web App Libraries node update to reflect the change.

2. If you delete the file on the file system, you have to tell Eclipse
about that (this applies to any file, not just jar files in Web App
Libraries). Just right-click on the project and select the Refresh menu
item.
