web application as a library

Hello all.

I've created a web application which has some artifacts that I'd like to distribute to be used by another web application.
There is some JSP, Sevlets and even tiles-definitions on that project.
I was searching some way to do that, but the problem is that Servlets must be declared within the web.xml.

Does anybody could tell me if what I'm searching for is possible at least?

Any suggestions on where to find more about it will be appreciated.

Thanks.

What type of sharing are you talking about? Sounds like you simply need to make sure that the artifacts are under source control and can be built into either project. Some refactoring may be needed.

Or are you talking about run-time sharing?
