This isn't Maven related, it's a Java thing. Try compiling code at the command line with a war on the classpath -- it won't work. If something else depends on the classes in your war, then those classes probably deserve to be in a separate module which creates a jar. Then both your war and the other project can depend on this jar. You might also be interested in the 'archiveClasses' parameter of the war plugin, which will make it create a jar instead of using WEB-INF/classes. http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/war-mojo.html -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
