Module Dependencies Not Included After Restart

Hello TH,

Did you import your project from Maven or Eclipse?

I am using Intellij 7.0.3 build #7757 and I have little issue with
module dependencies setting. I have 3 projects e.g. Project1, Project2
and Project3. Project1 depends on Project3. I added Project3
dependency thru Project Settings -> Dependencies -> Add -> Module
Dependency. Every time I restart Intellij, this link is removed. How
do I make this link permanent?

I noticed that the link is written to the .iml file but after the
"restart" this information is erased from the file.

I import it from Maven

User dependencies are not supported in maven modules. All the dependencies must be specified in the pom.xml file.
What is the reason for such project configuration?

I am working on Project 1 and uses Project 3 JAR. However, because there are bugs a in Project 3, I have to fix the bugs in Project 3 to complete the whole project. Compiling and packing Project 3 as JAR slows my development cycle tremendously and hence I decided to import Project 3 as IntelliJ module. When Project 3 is completed, it will be releases as a Maven project.

Not completely understand the part "Compiling and packing Project 3 as JAR slows my development cycle".
Basically, you do not need to pack a project to make idea import it. The only things you need to do are to create a pom.xml and maintain the specified layout. Maybe it is possible to covert your project3 into the maven project?

Project 3 and Project 1 are in Maven structure. How do I make Project 1 depends on Project 3? Do I use parent pom.xml to accomplish that? Thanks
