How do I run a class in a WAR from the command line?

by

Similar to what Richard Detsch but with a bit easier to follow (works with packages as well)

Step 1: Unwrap the War file.

jar -xvf MyWar.war

Step 2: move into the directory

cd WEB-INF

Step 3: Run your main with all dependendecies

java -classpath "lib/*:classes/." my.packages.destination.FileToRun
