Description

I am not sure if this counts as a duplicate of MTOMCAT-46, there are some differences...

Consider a multi module project in maven structured like this:

• parent
• api
• implementation
• webapp

The webapp has a compile scope dependency on the API and a runtime scope dependency on the implementation. The implementation classes are loaded with some dependency injection framework.

If I run tomcat(7):run in the root project it will fail because the tomcat plugin does not add the implementation classes (i.e. the runtime dependency) to the classpath. If I change the dependency scope of the implementation dependency to compile, it works.

The solution for this was pretty simple. Just change one method call in DefaultClassLoaderEntriesCalculator, viewable in the applied patch. All tests and IT-tests still pass.
