I am in a situation where we are developing multiple web applications all of which share a large percentage of 3rd party jar files.
I have created a “Simple” project called “Common” and placed these 3rd party jars. I have set our other projects build paths to utilize jars from the “Common” project. All projects are under CVS source control. Every time we bring a new developer in and have them check the projects out from CVS, we experience a problem, the dependent jar files are not bundled into the deployed war files. It’s an easy fix to go check the Properties -> MyEclipse-Web -> Deployments and uncheck the “use Workbench default settings” and check “Jars on Web Project Build Path”. However, it would be nice if these settings were stored in some metadata file that could be checking into CVS with the rest of the project. Perhaps I am missing something, but this setting does not seem to get added to the .project, .mymetadata, or any file under the .settings directory. If I am mistaken please point me to the right place.

Oh and I am running J2SE 5.0, eclipse 3.1.2, and MyEclipse 4.1

Thanks

The behavior you are describing is indeed the way it works currently. Project deployment setting doesn’t get saved anywhere that would allow for sharing with other team members. I will kick this topic up to management and bring it up for discussion.
