I have small project consisting of one maven project and two maven modules. One of the modules is a webapp, and I'm using WTP to run all my web applications. Everything has been fine, until today when when the webapp started refusing to compile, citing:
Project 'sdx.client' cannot reference itself
If I remove the following line from the .classpath:
<classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.web.container"/>
my project compiles again. From googling, I believe this is a WTP element, but I'm not really sure what it does and why it believes that it contains a reflexive reference to the project containing it. Suggestions for where to look to track down the source of the problem would be very welcome.
Update
I haven't solved the problem, but I did make the symptoms go away by deleting the project and checking it out again from svn. So it looks like a bug somewhere, but I'm not sure where to report it or how to propose a decision procedure to determine when it's fixed.
