| <h1 class="topictitle1">Importing an application client JAR file</h1> |
| <div><p>Application client projects are deployed as JAR files. You can |
| import an application client project that has been deployed into a JAR file |
| by using the Import wizard.</p> |
| <div class="section"> <p>To import an application client JAR file using the wizard:</p> |
| </div> |
| <ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>In the J2EE perspective, click <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">File</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Import</span></span>. The Import window opens.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Under <span class="uicontrol">Select an import source</span>, click <span class="uicontrol">App |
| Client Jar file</span>.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Next</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. Click the <span class="uicontrol">Browse</span> button to select the JAR file |
| from the file system.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Application Client project</span> field, |
| type a new project or select an application client project from the drop-down |
| list. Or, click the <span class="uicontrol">New</span> button to launch the New Application |
| Client Project wizard. If you type a new name in this field, the application |
| client project will be created based on the version of the application client |
| JAR file, and it will use the default location. Use the <span class="uicontrol">New</span> button |
| to change the J2EE version and the location.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>If you are importing to an existing project, select <span class="uicontrol">Overwrite |
| existing resources without warning</span>.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Target server</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"><span>Specify whether you want to add the new module to an enterprise |
| application (EAR) project.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">EAR application</span> field, type a new |
| project name or select an existing enterprise application project from the |
| drop-down list. Or, click the <span class="uicontrol">New</span> button to launch |
| the New Enterprise Application Project wizard.</span> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If you type |
| a new EAR project name, the EAR 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> |
