I am using MyEclipse 6.0.1 GA with Eclipse 3.3.2.R33 on a Windows XP Pro machine. I am deploying a web project with 2 required projects. One is included in the deployment and one is not. I cannot figure out why one project’s classes are never included with the deployment, neither added in an exploded dir nor jarred into the library for a packaged deployment.

Web Projects can only have Java Projects as dependencies. If your project that isn’t getting deployed is a Web Proejct itself, that’s why it’s not getting deployed.

It’s Hibernate/EJB project…is that a problem?

Oh yea, the reason you can’t deploy it as a dependency of the Web project is because it’s an EJB project.

It sounds to me you just have to restructure your deployment model. If you have an app that has EJBs and Web modules, what you need to do is create an Enterprise Application Project, and mark *those* projects as modules of the EAR project.

Then you need to mark any common library projects as references of the EAR project as well, and remove them as dependencies of the web project. WHen you deploy the whole thing MyEclipse will package it all up nice and pretty and deploy it as an EAR for you. More information here:

I removed the HIbernate and EJB MyEclipse features and it worked…THANKS!

Very cool. Glad it’s working.

Thank you so much, I need to restructure some of our legacy stuff this way, gives me a good reason now!
