Creation of .jar file of a Dynamic Web Project when building the project [message #664367]

When building a dynamic web project, it automatically compiles the java files and keeps it in build\classes directory. Now when i publish this in tomcat from server tab it correctly copies the class files to WEB-INF\classes directory.

But instead of copying the class files to WEB-INF\classes directory, I want this project to create a jar file and place it in WEB-INF\lib directory. Can anyone help me how this is achieved. I hope I am asking in the right forum.

This is the correct forum.

Create a Java EE Utility project and move your java source code there. Then add this project to your web project's build path. Then go to web project's project properties. On the deployment assembly page add classpath entry to the assembly. The default location will be WEB-INF/lib.
