How to deploy a project's depenencies

[Rafael Barrera Oro <ra...@akyasociados.com.ar>]

   Hello i am working with two differente projects with separate build 
files. My intention is to build project A and make a JAR out of it (they 
are Java projects), then include it in project B and finally, deploy 
project B in a tomcat server.
   The thing is i can not manage to deploy project B with all its 
dependencies, it seems like whenever i deploy something ends missing on 
the deployment. Judging by the errors i get, the problem is the absence 
of several dependencies, not just project A but a lot of JAR referenced 
by project B.

Thanks in advance, any help would be very appreciated.

Rafael

PD: I hope i made myself clear, if not, feel free to point out.

There are several strategies for managing library dependecies in a java
project. You could use something like Apache Maven
(http://maven.apache.org/). You could check in the libraries to your
source control system.

In my work, most often the easiest solution is to check in the 3rd party
jars to source control and deploy them with our compiled code to the
runtime environment. When a dependency is another internally developed
library, I would do the following.

<available property="some.jar.exists" file="relative/path/to/some.jar"/>

<target name="build-dependency" unless="some.jar.exists"/>
 <ant file="path/to/some/build.xml" target="build"/>
</target>

<target name="deploy" depends="build-dependency">
...

I hope this helps.
