I have several plugins in an application.  One of the plugins has to be
deployed as a directory instead of a jar file how do I do this.  I have
not had any lick searching for a way to do this yet.

Thanks in advance for your help

This is easy.

But you don't "build your plugin as a directory", it is driven as part
of the build process for your application.

Take the time to turn your build into a "feature" based build, and not
a "plugin" based build, if you haven't already.

Then in the feature that includes the plugin, on the right hand side
of the feature.xml "Plug-ins" tab you will see "Plug-in Details".
Select your plugin and then enable "Unpack the plug-in archive after
the installation" and you are done.

Cheers.
