| <div><div class="section"> <p> A Web archive (WAR) file is a packaged Web application that |
| can be exported to test, publish, and deploy the resources developed within |
| a Web project.</p> |
| <p>To export a WAR file from a Web project, do the following: </p> |
| </div> |
| <ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Right click on a Web project folder and select <strong>Export</strong> from |
| the pop-up menu. Then select<strong> WAR file</strong> in the Export window and then |
| select <strong>Next</strong>.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Specify the Web project you want to export (this field is primed |
| if you used the pop-up menu to open the wizard), and specify a location for |
| the new WAR file</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><strong>Optional: </strong><span>Optionally, supply WAR export <span>Options</span>, |
| such as whether or not to include Java™ source files in the WAR, and whether |
| to overwrite any existing resources during the export process. </span> Source |
| files are not usually included in a WAR file, because they are not necessary |
| for the server to run the web application.</li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span><b>Finish</b></span>.</span></li> |
