You deployed jars for web applications?

War files are not JavaEE, you might be thinking of EAR files.

A war file is just a jar file with a different name and manifest, and expects a few things, WEB-INF directory with a web.xml and that is about it.

More info can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAR_file_format_(Sun)



Sorry for my mistake, I associate WAR files with Application containers like JBoss and (IIRC) Tomcat. I only deployed with embedded jetty :)
