Problem loading annotated class

[thombergs]

Reported by mortendamby, Nov 20, 2013
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Create an Eclipse JSF 2.1 project using wicked-charts-highcharts-1.4.2.jar in your classpath
2. Run the project on a Tomcat 7 server
3. The JSF page comes up blank due to a "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
There should be no error and the JSF page should load correctly. Instead the page comes up blank and the console displays: "SEVERE: Unable to load annotated class: , reason: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/googlecode/wickedcharts/highcharts/options/color/ColorReference"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using wicked-charts-jsf21-1.5.0 on Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.

I've double chekked web.xml and faces-config, both of them are as they should be.
My bean class looks like this:

package Charts;

import java.util.Arrays;

import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;

import com.googlecode.wickedcharts.highcharts.options.*;
import com.googlecode.wickedcharts.highcharts.options.series.*;

@ManagedBean(name="chart")
public class WickedCharts {

    private Options options;

    public Options getOptions(){
        createChart();
        return options;
    }

    public void setOptions(Options options){
        this.options = options;
    }


    public void createChart(){

    options
        .setChartOptions(new ChartOptions()
            .setType(SeriesType.LINE));

    options
        .setTitle(new Title("My very own chart."));

    options
        .setxAxis(new Axis()
            .setCategories(Arrays
                .asList(new String[] { "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May",
                    "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec" })));

    options
        .setyAxis(new Axis()
            .setTitle(new Title("Temperature (C)")));

    options
        .setLegend(new Legend()
            .setLayout(LegendLayout.VERTICAL)
            .setAlign(HorizontalAlignment.RIGHT)
            .setVerticalAlign(VerticalAlignment.TOP)
            .setX(-10)
            .setY(100)
            .setBorderWidth(0));

    options
        .addSeries(new SimpleSeries()
            .setName("Tokyo")
            .setData(
                Arrays
                    .asList(new Number[] { 7.0, 6.9, 9.5, 14.5, 18.2, 21.5,
                        25.2, 26.5, 23.3, 18.3, 13.9, 9.6 })));

    options
        .addSeries(new SimpleSeries()
            .setName("New York")
            .setData(
                Arrays
                    .asList(new Number[] { -0.2, 0.8, 5.7, 11.3, 17.0, 22.0,
                        24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 14.1, 8.6, 2.5 })));
    }
}
