It depends on what functionality you have in the ear.

Have a look at Packaging Applications Chapter here:

I gone through Packaging Applications But my question is i already have build.xml which builds my application into ProjectName.ear. How do i get ProjectName.war for the same application.

I assume that your EAR application is 100% compatible with WAR.

Simplest solution will be to use Eclipse export function.

File->Export->Web->War

Or generate two identical projects (e.g. 'ear2war'), first as EAR second as WAR, have a look at configuration files and finaly adjust your project.

Using Eclipse export function , it shows an error message Module name is invalid.

Second thing is i dont want to create new WAR project because i am integrating so many tools inside that. please help me if any other way of achieving this.

Thanks and Regards
