An extension of <jar> to create a WAR archive. Contains special treatment for files that should end up in the
WEB-INF/lib
,
WEB-INF/classes
or
WEB-INF
directories of the Web Application Archive.
(The War task is a shortcut for specifying the particular layout of a WAR file. The same thing can be accomplished by using the prefix and fullpath attributes of zipfilesets in a Zip or Jar task.)
The extended zipfileset element from the zip task (with attributes prefix, fullpath, and src) is available in the War task.
