Profiling web project with dependancies

[jMolecules]

Dear All,

I am working on a web project (jsf,spring) which is dependent on the backend api. Lets call it ProjectA. This APIs are devided into two projects ... a) Service Interfaces and b) DAO implementations (hibernate).

I can run and deploy the main web project with .jar files made out from the backend API projects. The problem is, I have been using Eclipse for development till now.

I would like to use NetBeans for its excellent profiling features. I have tried to create a sample web app project with tomcat (same one) on netbeans and it profiles it very well.

But, when I use my ProjectA then tomcat does not start and gives me path not found message. I dont know how to configure the whole project with backend sources for APIs too. Is it necessary? or there is something else I am ignoring?

Any help or directions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
