project dependency problems in netbeans

Hi,

I have a project created called proj-lib/lib which holds all jars required
for other projects like proj-server and proj-client.

When i attach proj-lib to proj-server and proj-client, netbeans jars up the
project (proj-lib.jar) and adds it to the classpath.

Then, when i clean and build proj-server or proj-client they dont seem to
recognize the library and hence do not compile.

One project (in this case proj-server) should be able to reference other
project (proj-lib) without being jarred.

Does there exist a workaround for this or is it an overlooked functionality.

Regards,
Imran Shah
