Module dependency

In order to include Java module to your Web app you need to add it to configuration of an artifact which is deployed to Tomcat.
Open File | 'Project Structure' dialog and select your artifact under 'Artifacts' group. The artifact editor should show a warning 'Module ... is
missing from the artifact', click on 'Fix' button to add the module to the artifact.

In a project, I have a Web module, and a Java module. The Web module has a dependency to Java module.
When I deploy the web module to Tomcat (Local config) the Web module is deployed but then the application throws java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

So it seems like the module dependency is not respected.

Am I doing it wrong?

Thx! that worked well!

Just a side note. By default all the dependencies are compiled to WEB-INF/classes which means if there's a single file (let's say a configuration file) with the same name in all the modules, then it gets overwritten.
It would be much better if the dependencies are configured to be in WEB-INF/lib automatically (as they are usually in the real life). This can be achieved manually however, no problem. But just a usability factor.

Thx again!
