When you clean and build under Netbeans, you should find all you need under the dist
folder:
- if you a creating a web application you should find a .war file – that is the file to deploy: just copy it to the
webapps
folder for Tomcat - if you are creating a standalone application or a library, you should find the .jar
Above assume you do not use maven for the project. If you did you would not have a dist
folder, but the standard maven target
one.
