Hi guys,
Anybody got an idea to extract contents from .war files like the one's comes with Tomcat. Any utilities/tools available.
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanx

Just use jar. Both .war and .ear files are just .jar files with a certain structure (and a .jar file is in turn a .zip file with meta-information added, so if you don't have jar you can simply rename the file to .zip and open it).

Thanx Peter for your reply. I know the .jar can be opened with any zip utilities. I tried the same thing with .war but no luck.
Even i renamed the .war to zip and tried still luck doesnot seem to turn out my way.

Thanx again
Ajan

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
