You can resolve cyclical dependencies
after an EAR is imported.
A
cyclical dependency between two or more modules in an enterprise application
most commonly occurs when projects are imported from outside the workbench.
When a cycle exists between two or more modules in an enterprise application,
the Java™ builder
cannot accurately compute the build order of the projects. Full builds fail
under these conditions, or require several invocations.
Therefore, the
best practice is to organize your projects or modules into components. This
allows your module dependencies to function as a tree instead of a cycle diagram.
This practice has the added benefit of producing a better factored and layered
application.
To reorganize your project to correct cyclical dependencies,
complete the following steps:
