Yes there are differences between a .war and a .ear file. You may want to be vaguely familar with the "discrete characteristics that separate the two" before choosing one over the other. (or rather along with). > > So to be more clear, is there a process using META to deploy a Turbine > project as an .ear rather than a .war? I'm not familiar with META. Yes you can deploy your turbine web application just fine from within an ear file. Depending on the tools you have available, you might want to check into the ant ear task to help you create your ear. The only think you should need extra is to be sure to include your tubine application in your ear's META-INF/application.xml file. I wonder if there's an ant task which can generate a application.xml file for you based on a fileset perhaps? > > > Thanks - Tod > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
