I can't seem to find a way to create / deploy JAR files.

Is this supported in Eclipse? Or do I just need to keep reading the docs?

I installed Eclipse using eclipse-SDK-3.0.1-linux-gtk.zip.

thks,

Bryan

On the project, select the Export, and then from the next dialog select
Jar File.

Thanks for the information. But I am still a little confused.

When I try to add files (classes) to the jar I need to re-do all my
selections.
I notice if my project name is not highlighted then the result is all
selections are lost. If the project name is highlighted then everything
is selected.

Either way, I have to completely redefine the export.

Am I missing something?

thanks again,

Bryan

Once you do one you like, you can save it as a jar description. Hit the
"Next" button after you selected what you wanted. There is a field that
says save it as a jar description in the workspace. Using the browse
button you can select where you want to save it.

Then the next time you want to jar up the project, select the jar
description file that you created, and from the popup menu select Open
Jar Packager. From there you can select more files if you wish and
create the jar and resave the description as before.

Thanks again.

I wondered what that description field was for.

I must be really dense.

I can't see anything called "open jar packager"

File->Export->JAR file

I then select my description file... Then that is it, no pop up menu with
"open jar packager".

Regards,

Bryan

You don't do

> File->Export->JAR file
>
The file->export is only done the first time to create the jardesc file.

After that you instead go to the navigator and select the jardesc file,
and from its popup menu you select open jar packager.
