While trying to implement the introducing-tours example from the
TuscanySCAInAction book, I ran into a bug: A reference from a composite 
to a composite located in another project or in a jar file does
not work.

Example:
There is a tours.composite file in an Eclipse project called
"Tours" which references a service like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"? <sca:composite
xmlns:sca="http://www.osoa.org/xmlns/sca/1.0" name="tours" targetNamespace="http://tuscanyscatours.com/"
<sca:component name="TripBooking"

<sca:reference name="mytrips" target="TripProvider/Trips"
<sca:interface.java interface="com.tripprovider.Trips" /
</sca:reference

</sca:component

</sca:composite

When I use the SCA Builder or try to open the composite in the
SCA composite model editor, I get an
UnresolvedReferenceException for mytrips and the project
is marked as having an error.

Adding a project reference from Tours to Trips doesn't help, neither
does adding the Trips jar file to the project libraries.

The Java project compiles all right and the composites can be deployed together,
it's only the SCA Builder that is at fault.
