"Putting java packages as web applications on tomcat"
Dear all, I have few java packages that I would like to put on Tomcat, I was searching intensively on the web how one does this but I could not find concrete consrtuction. Code within packages contains servlets that process get requests, so I do not need to change anything in the code all I need to do is to put in the right place in tomcat. Could you reffer me to some web - source where this is explained or can you give me some tipps as to how I should proceed.

Re: using a class from jar file
I made a mistake I wanted instead of war file I wrote a jar file. So the web application has been already created. My question is if I have to compile a java class that extends one of the classes included in a jar file. Do I have to extract from war file necessary libraries need for the compilation of my file or there is a more elegant way to handle this?

Re: using a class from jar file
The problem is that I cannot find classes in the WEB_INF\classes directory that I want to extend with my new class. I only have found some .properties file. I was trying to import a war file in eclipse and I coud not find an option that will make it possible. Can these properties files be of any help?
