Build Identifier: I20110127-2034

My project have Maven dependencies that are other projects. If all other projects are closed, all jars are published and all works fine. If I open an other project, the maven dependency is not an jar anymore, but a project of my workspace. Then those classes are not deployed and the server publication won't work !

Development become quite complex !

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a dynamic web project (A) with maven dependencies
2. create a java project (B)
3. make (A) depends on (B). declare in the web.xml a servlet that is a class of (B)
4. close (B)
5. start  the server -> all work
6. stop the server
7. open (B)
8. start the server -> fail : the NoClassDefFoundError, the (B) classes are not deployed and could not be used !

This could be Java EE Tools, or it could be Server Tools.

Could you attach the stack trace associated with the NoClassDefFoundError?

Also, could you clarify the exact level of Eclipse/WTP you are using?

And, if you could attach a workspace for us to debug with, things would happen faster.

Retargeting to 3.4.0, but if nothing more is attached, as per previous request, this will get closed.
