How to deploy a EAR app as zipped from Eclipse int

问题:

My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit.

I am using Eclipse Luna. I have JBoss Tools 4.2.3.Final plugin.

I am using Wildfly 8.2.1.Final in Standalone mode.

I have a EAR app named TestApp.

To publish it to Wildfly from Eclipse, in the Servers view, I right click on the Wildfly server to open the pop-up menu and click on Publish option.

When I publish it to Wildfly from Eclipse, it is deployed as exploded in standalone\deployments directory i.e. a sub-directory named TestApp.ear is created in standalone\deployments directory which has all the files.

What I want is when I publish it to Wildfly from Eclipse, it is deployed as zipped in standalone\deployments directory i.e. a zip file named TestApp.ear.

How can I do that?

When I work in Eclipse with old JBoss version 4.2.3, when I deploy to JBoss from Eclipse, it is deployed as zipped but how to get the same way with Jboss Tools plugin?

Thanks

Double click on WildFly in "Servers" view which will open its properties page.

There are 2 tabs in it: Overview and Deployment.

Go to "Deployment" tab.

There is an option "Deploy projects as compressed archives" with a checkbox besides it. In you case it is not checked.

Check it then save it.

Next time when you deploy the EAR app it will deploy as compressed.
