ClassNotFoundException at deployment - eclipse

Question

I have an external dependency (ejb-client) installed in local maven repo. Eclipse and manual maven builds see it just fine and compile successfully. It is also listed correctly under Maven dependencies.
When I deploy to WildFly 8.1, the runtime does not recognise the classes and throws exceptions. I never had problems with dependencies like this before. The only difference with this project is that it's a SwitchYard 2.0 project (WildFly 8.1 overlay). I suspect that either WildFly configuration is wrong due to overlay or I am missing some maven build plugins.
I finally solved it using maven shade plugin which compiles the dependency inside but:
1. I never needed it before so I don't like the solution
2. It is not run automatically when deploying from eclipse so I have to do a manual maven build and manual deploy. How do I tell maven to run the shade plugin when deploying? I tried to change phase from package to deploy to no avail.
The external dependency causing trouble is jmsprojekt-main.

Answer 1

The solution is to wrap the SwitchYard project into an EAR. Dependencies are resolved correctly then.
