Eclipse WTP is driving me nuts :)

Hi,

Settings :
- Eclipse Europa JEE 3.3.1
- JDK 6
- Tomcat 6.0

In my workspace I have 2 projects :
- a simple java project with my domain objects and my services.
- a WTP web project with my web presentation layer.

My web project has an eclipse dependency to my pojo project.
I added my web project to the WTP tomcat 6.0 server settings so I can start and stop my server from Eclipse.

As long as I don't refer to any pojo in my pojo project everything works well.
But as soon as I try to use a class from my pojo project in my web project, even if I have no classpath problem while editing my webView class, I get a ClassNotFound exception when deployed in tomcat.

I tried :
- MyWebProject -> properties -> J2EE Module dependencies -> select myPojo project => doesn't work
- MyWebProject -> properties -> project references -> select myPojo project => doesn't work either.

did anybody outhere have the same problem as I did ?

thanks in advance because I'm sticked.

Tomcat doesn't know anything about your Eclipse settings. If you want to include parts of one project inside another, you still have to install them into the web application you're building in the exact same way you would if you didn't have Eclipse at all.
