Description

I really love this extension and vscode is my favorite. Recently I wanted to move my java development to vscode.
I have a workspace which has two projects in java which I want to configure to run in vscode. One is dynamic webproject and other is normal java project. I have done a maven setup to include the java project as dependency into dynamic project. This setup works well in eclipse, however vscode is unable to add my java dependency into dynamic web project. Is there a way to do it like add something similar to deployment assembly or add project into my dynamic web project.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Maven workspace described: a dynamic web project depending on a separate Java project, and compare its behavior in Eclipse and VS Code. Investigate how the extension discovers project dependencies; done means the dependency is recognized and usable in the dynamic web project without manual deployment assembly configuration.
