Including a Project into a Web Project [message #64186]

I have been having some trouble getting my Tomcat runtime to recognize a
project I am including into my webproject.

First the information:
Fresh install of wtp-1.0m2 with fresh install of all required components.
Tomcat 5.5.6 - Fresh Install

I first create a Project (UtilityProject) and add a class to it
(UtilityClass).

Then I add a web project (WebProject) with and index.jsp file. I set the
WebProject up to reference UtilityProject.

The jsp editor seems to find the UtilityClass just fine, but when I try
and execute the .jsp through the Tomcat runtime it tells me the class
isn't there. Apparently I need to add it to the classpath of tomcat but I
am unsure of how to do this.

Any ideas?

Okay, got it working. I had to go into the Run options for the Tomcat
Server and add the projects to the ClassPath. I have to do this for both
the Debug and Run options. I wish this process could be a little more
automated like it is in WSAD.

Okay, I spoke to soon. Apparently because the Utility Project defines a
Struts Action the struts.jar gets included in the Classpath twice and
breaks. Any ideas on this one?
