NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jbo/uicli/controls/JUPanel

Question

I used JDev 10.1.3.0.4 to build an ADF Swing app (swing app in one project, ADF BC components in another project); which run fine from within JDev in the embedded OC4J environment.
I am trying to create a simple jar file to execute my application.
I followed the help descriptions for creating a deployment profile, and added an ADFRuntime file group with all libraries defined in the project properties. The files displayed in the profile's ADFRuntime file group include the expected jars; including adfm.jar. The resulting application jar file contains the jars listed in the profile, but when trying to execute the jar, an "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jbo/uicli/controls/JUPanel" is thrown.
I can see adfm.jar in my application jar, and can also see "JUPanel.class" listed under "oracle/jbo/uicli/controls" in adfm.jar.
Any suggestions on what I am missing or why this is happening are much appreciated!!

Hi,
if you put jar files into jar files then this wont work. Either you add the jar files directly to the classpath (seratately) or you add them to the dependency analyzis so the contained classes get added to the application jar file (which then makes this jar file very big - c.a. 15 - 20 MB).
