Is there a way how to share code for CAF applications (webMethods)

Question

I have several CAF applications, that are part of one SW project.

The question is: "Is there a way to share common code, to prevent copy+paste into all applications?"

Answer 1

It turned out, that (at least my opinion) CAF aplications are published strangly from designer - I expected war, but instead, in deploy folder, there is CAF application folder in which there is WEB-INF and in its lib folder there is jar created from all classes in Eclipse project :-/

The solution I used is to have shared Java project exported to jar and copied to CAF projects' lib folder.

For this I used two things:

• Tutorial: How to create JAR automatically in Eclipse
• when this was working I used ant's copy command to distribute the jar to all CAF projects
