i’m using netbeans for writing a webapp + filter.
I want to generate a jar file (to place in tomcat/lib folder) for the sake of the filter.
when i compile the project, it generates war file.
is there a way to tell netbeans to generate a jar file instead?
Create a separate project to generate your .jar file. In that case also I think you have to create the .jar using terminal. You can’t create a .jar file for a web project using netbeans IDE, as far as I know.
