Exporting an application client project

You can export an application client project as a JAR file.

This process for exporting to a JAR file is not meant to be a project sharing mechanism. If you want to share projects, see Sharing projects using Project Interchange.

To export an application client project from the workbench:

  1. In the Project Explorer view of the J2EE perspective, right-click the application client project that you want to export.

  2. Select Export > App Client JAR file from the pop-up menu. The Export wizard opens.

  3. In the Destination field, enter the full path and JAR file name where you want to export the application client project that is selected in the Application Client project field.

  4. Optional: To export source files, select the Export source files check box.

  5. Optional: If you are exporting to an existing JAR file and you do not want to be warned about overwriting it, select Overwrite existing files without warning

  6. Click Finish.
