Creating war file

Question

I have extracted existing WAR file contents and modified few images. Now I have to re-create it to WAR file again using the extracted code from original war file.

I am working on linux.

Any idea how can we re-create war file.

Thanks

You can use the java jar command line utility to create the war file again:

jar -cvf yourwar.war updatedContentsdir
