I have a dynamic web project within an enterprise application project created in eclipse(galiloe) and am trying to deploy it in JBoss5.

Everything works just fine, but eclipse always creates the web project output war(within the enterprise ear) as an archive with the name of the web project. I am in need to have the deployable war as a folder with name of the folder ending with '.war' and not as an exact archive......

Where am i to change to have eclipse create the web project output as folder instead of an archive???


thanks

I see that in the enterprise application project setting, by marking the dependency-type for the project(s) as 'consumes' puts the project output in exploded format in the server deploy folder, but this happens only for normal library/java projects.

This option does not work for a web or ejb project. Eclipse always creates ejb and web project output as archives inside the ear, whether it be consumes or uses...

That is correct. You need to install the JBoss Tools plugins and use those for your projects to get exploded deployment. (I guess my earlier hint was not enough. )
