Speaking of "gratuitously difficult".....

Has anyone ever messed with the "deploytool" in J2EE?

AHHGGG!!!!

I just want to deploy a simple war file.  I googled around and I could not even find 
good
documentation (Sun or elsewhere).

Does anyone know of a good plugin for Eclipse that creates war files?  I guess 
JBuilder has a good
war file creation utility.

Basically, shouldn't I be able to jar up everything in a webapp directory as long as I 
add the
correct "deployment descripter"?  I could not find an example of doing this.

Also, is it possible to create a war file that has a "context.xml" file?

I hate wasting time on stuff that should be simple.

Mike
