<div class="id_taskbody"><p class="id_shortdesc">Application client projects are deployed
as JAR files. You can import an application client project that has been deployed

<div class="id_context"> <p class="anchor_topictop" />
<p>To
import an application client JAR file using the wizard, complete the following
steps:</p>
</div>
<ol class="id_steps">
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the Java™ EE perspective, click <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">File</span>
&gt; <span class="uicontrol">Import</span></span>.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Under <span class="uicontrol">Select an import source</span>, click <span class="menucascade">
<span class="uicontrol">J2EE</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">App Client JAR file</span></span>.</span>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Application Client file</span> field, enter
the location and name of the application client JAR file that you want to
import.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Application Client project</span> field,
type a new project name or accept the default project name. </span> The
application client project will be created based on the version of the application
client JAR file, and it will use the default location.</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Target runtime</span> drop-down list, select
the application server that you want to target for your development. This
selection affects the run time settings by modifying the class path entries
for the project.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><strong>Optional: </strong><span>To add the new module to an enterprise application
project, select the <span class="uicontrol">Add project to an EAR</span> check box
and then select an existing enterprise application project from the list or
create a new one by clicking <span class="uicontrol">New</span>.</span> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If
you type a new enterprise application project name, the enterprise application
project will be created in the default location with the lowest compatible
J2EE version based on the version of the project being created. If you want
to specify a different version or a different location for the enterprise
application, you must use the New Enterprise Application Project wizard.</div>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Finish</span> to import the application client
JAR file.</span></li>
