Deploying servlets

[KRK Gowda]

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me how to package servlets and other files into .ear file in UNIX.

Thanks and Regards,

Is there a particular development tool that you're using? Any development tool will provide facilities for exporting code as an EAR.

There's nothing magical about an ear. It is simply a zip file, or jar file, with a .ear extension. You can actually create an ear with the jar utility from the JDK.

The big thing about an ear is that it must conform to the standard for creating an ear, such as the appropriate deployment descriptors and war and jar files contained within.
