    How can I export a web project in myEclipse as a war file so that this war contains java source as well as class files? Right now I can export the web project as a war file but it contains only class files and not java source files. I need to take back up of these files, that’s why I need a war which contains both source and class files.

    Thanks

    Ashish,
    WAR files by definition are binary deployable units, meaning they are not intended to have source code in them, that’s why MyEclipse isn’t helping you put source code in them.

    Now as far as backups are concerned, a more effective way to get a backup of your project is to use File > Export > Archive, then export your project to a ZIP or other archive and back that up.

    Does that help you?
