I am looking for a way to export a .jar file in Netbeans. I know that when I clean/build it automagically puts everything in a .war file in the dist directory. However, in Eclipse you can select Export -> Export -> Java -> JAR file and click next and select only the resources you want to export and select a location to export the .jar file to. Is there any equivalent to this in Netbeans?

I ended up just building the project the usual way getting a .war file in the dist folder.
I then used a zip program called IZArc: http://www.izarc.org/ to open the .war and get out only what I needed to build the .jar. I then used IZArc again to create the .jar file.
If anyone knows of an easier way (preferably through Netbeans itself) please let me know.
