I'm using 5.1.1 and Rational App Developer 7.0 (RAD). I've downloaded the sample test portlet and imported the war into RAD, added it to the same EAR which contains Liferay 5.1.1. I also installed the tomcat bundle, deployed the test portlet there and copied the changes made to the sample portlets WEB-INF from there to the sample portlet in RAD. I added a couple of the Liferay portal jars to resolve some compile errors in the sample portlet and now both start fine in RAD. However, the sample portlet doesn't appear in the "Add Applications" list. I expect that I'm missing some simple steps but cannot figure out what they are. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Jeff

I had to set the WAR classloader policy to APPLICATION in the application.xml of the ear. That resolved the issue.
