Description Chris Frost CLA 2010-11-23 10:02:29 EST 
Correct the build of the splash screen app to produce a .jar artifact.
Comment 1 Chris Frost CLA 2010-12-16 08:02:49 EST 
Just to give you a pointer. This is caused by the hard coded .war extension in the common.properties file in Virgo-Build. Property 'war.output.file'. This is not a trivial fix, Virgo-Build needs to support a whole new Artifact type. Just building it as a jar won't work as it will not be built as a WAB or a War file and will fail to deploy any web resources.

BTW, it has some parts of it's web module support lying around that need deleting, I spotted a load of web.module properties in the file as well, I suspect that is all that is left. Please ask if you have questions on the build system.
