Exporting another project when publishing to a server [message #203806]

Hello,

I have a question. Ich have two projects one is a WTP project and the
other is a simple java project. The WTP project depends on the simple java
project. I add the depend project to the buildpath and eclipse find the
classes.

The problem is when I publish the WTP project to a tomcat server the
depended project is not publish to the server or isn't copied to the
classes directory.

Is that a bug? When not how must I configure the projects that both are
published.

I have a Workaround. I export the simple java project to a jar and copy
the jar in the lib dir. But that is not a good solution.

Instead of adding the Java project using the Java Build Path page of
project Properties, use the J2EE Module Dependencies page. Checking the
Java project there internally adds it to the build path and WTP will
automatically do during publishing what you are doing manually, i.e.
build a jar from the Java project's Java output and publish it to
WEB-INF/lib.

Cheers,
Larry

Thx for the answer. But when I use the J2EE Dependency I must use a J2EE
Application Server but I only need the Tomcat instead Geronimo.

Can I do the same with Tomcat without manuel exporting the project to a
jar?

AFAIK, you don't need to use a J2EE Application Server to use the J2EE
Module Dependecies page to add inter-project dependencies.

Mauro.
