Packaging a Client Application for Deployment

A J2EE Client module is packaged as a client JAR file which contains one or more Java application components and a client deployment descriptor file named application-client.xml. Once you've created the deployment profile and the deployment descriptor file, you can deploy the client JAR to the application server.

To package a client application for deployment:

Create a Client JAR File deployment profile for your project. A profile may have already been created for your project. If you wish to deploy to multiple targets, create a separate profile for each.
Create the application-client.xml deployment descriptor file, if not already present in your project. Normally, this file is created with the application client.
