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.

Anyone who thinks this is the real reason hasn't read the technology export restriction regulations that apply to US companies. The restrictions apply to the geographic location of the downloader, and don't have anything to do with sessions or trying to make it more gratuitously difficult to use command line tools.
