Description Torsten Schlabach CLA 2009-06-04 10:16:38 EDT 
Eclipse allows for a headless build of the workspace.

There should be a command which allows to export WAR or EAR file from a headless build operation.

Right now, exporting a WAR or EAR file is only possible from the GUI, which makes it little useful automated builds.

This is supported programatically. Write an application that calls WebComponentExportDataModelProvider. See http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/jst/components/j2ee/api/j2ee_operationsAPI.html for details.
