regarding jar file in web application

not sure this is the right fourm for the question

the problem is i am having a web application and some helper classes and servlet class files what i did is made the jar of all the class file and placed them in the WEB-INF/lib/ folder the application picks up the servlet files but shows error class not found in case of helper classes while is i place the exploded package structure in classes folder everything works fine.

If you're generating the jar file form eclipse IDE, you might want to check the jardesc file to make sure your helper classes get exported. In addition, you can open your jar with WinZip and check what's really in it ... otherwise, no idea.

no problem their it is having all the class files...

Is your classes get called from the servlet? Then are there import statements correctly, and is final JAR file contain the package structure correctly?

ya servlet is not giving any error only when i am returning to jsp them the error is thrown of DTO

BUt is imports where wrong then it would have been the same case for classes folder also...

but still for confirmation they are alright thanks
