Hi,

I am using the myeclipse smartdeployment feature to incluse used projects in my MyEclipse Web Project.
This work for most so far, but if I try to used another web-project in my web-project, it does not deploy the class files of the used web project. Both web-projects are created with MyEclipse.

Is this a bug or do I have to configure the deployment of dependent web-projects differently?

Thanks + great product,
Arno

Arno,
There is no support for dependent web project, there is no well-known way to mix web projects like that. You are asking about the classes, but what happens when you edit your web.xml file? Or index.jsp file? What should MyEclipse do?

These are the types of questions that have stopped us from adding this functionality but we have some ideas if the demand for this increases that we may add.

Hi Riyad,

I understand that the there is no correct way to merge web projects. However, I was expecting ‘the simple solution’, that the class files and jar files are included. Which mean that the dependent project is being treated as ‘normal’ java project.

My use case is, that I developed a taglib. Since I have some test cases, the Project is a web-project. Now other web-project want to use my tablib, without packaging it. So I probably have to tear apart my tablib project.

Anyway, thanks for the answer.

I understand that this puts you in a tricky situation, although if you made your taglib a Java project with smart deployment turned on, all you need to do is move your Web test cases out into a separate Test project and then you can easily share your taglib between any and all web projects you need.
