Problem with WAR File Export (lastmodified) [message #855368]

Hello I tried to google my problem but did not find anything helpfull.
Here is my problem:
I use the current "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers" edition of eclipse.
When I run my JSF application directly in eclipse everything works. If I export the project as a WAR file over the menu in eclipse and put this in a tomcat on my server the application behaves weired (partly not works). It took me two hours to find out that the files in the generated WAR files have a lastmodified which is in the future. In result tomcat always tries to reload the files....
It seem that it has something todo with timezones because it is 1 hour offset. But it seems that only the WAR file export is effected the files in the project have the right lastmodified...

Is there a special setting where I can stop this behaviour?

Thanks in advance

Found a workaround (no solution!): I disabled facelets recompilation. Now the generated WAR works again on my tomcat instance. It seems that it ignores the files with lastmodified in future now.
Still interested in an advice to fix the behaviour of the export-->WAR function.

Thanks in advance

Windows 7
Tomcat 7
Neon 4.6 (Eclipse for RCP and RAP Developers package )
git 4.4
I am having a very similar issue. All my .class files in the WAR are a random number of minutes into the future. Sometimes three minutes sometimes 35 minutes.

Unchecking "Optimize for a specific server runtime" when the option is Apache Tomcat v7.0 TomEE does not seems to make a difference.

i have the same issue with Windows 7 and Eclipse Juno
Last modified data files (.java , .html ....) are always in the future (in the hour or minutes part)

@Paul Roubekas
Did you solve somehow ?
