- You could make it globally available by putting it onto a web server.
- You could register a resource using the equinox.http.resource extension point without having to write a servlet.

Hi,

please follow the war deployment tutorial in the RAP Developer Guide. In
your IDE with RAP Tooling: Help -> Help Content -> RAP Developer Guide
-> Advanced -> War Deployment.

Dedicated tooling for war export does not yet exist but is in the works:
