Assembling Java EE client applications

Application client projects contain programs that run on networked client systems. An application client project is deployed as a Java™ archive (JAR) file.

About this task

Assemble a client module to contain client application code. Group enterprise beans, Web components, and resource adapter code in separate modules.

Use an assembly tool to assemble an application client module in any of the following ways:

Procedure

  1. Start an assembly tool.
  2. If you have not done so already, configure the assembly tool for work on Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) modules. Ensure that Java EE capability is enabled.
  3. Migrate application client JAR files created with the Assembly Toolkit, Application Assembly Tool (AAT) or a different tool to an assembly tool. To migrate files, import your application client JAR files to the assembly tool.
  4. Create a new client application.
  5. Verify the contents of the new client application in either of the following ways:
    • In the Project Explorer view, expand Application Client Projects and view the new module.
    • Click Window > Show View > Navigator to see the associated files for the application client module in a Navigator view.

What to do next

After you finish assembling all of your application's modules, you are ready to deploy your application.
