When is .settings/.component updated? [message #162447]

From within eclipse I have a project that is dependent on two other
projects, and those two projects are selected J2EE module dependencies.
But the dependencies are never written to .component. Thus the dependent
jars are never deployed.

I've opened/closed the projects. Restarted eclipse. Any help would be
appreciated.

I also just noticed that...

<property name="java-output-path" value="/build/classes/"/>

....is wrong also. Its almost like the .component file is dead. The
project does have the dynamic web project facet.

I created a new workspace and imported the projects into it. Now all
works. This is not the first time that I have had to create a new
workspace after WTP functionality has gone missing. The other time was
when I could no longer create web projects.

I didn't see any messages in the .log file. Are there other WTP specific
logs and/or is there any way I can better troubleshoot this to provide
useful information?

Well, I spoke too soon. Now the correct projects show up as dependents
(ie, subelements in the server view). But they never get deployed. I
really need some log/debug messages from WTP so I can figure out why it
is doing what it is doing.

After switching workspaces, restarting, and every other twiddle I could
think of, the jars are now again deployed. (Ok, could have been user
error ;-)
