Description: Currently, the only way to unpack a war file from within the IDE is to mount the directory that contains the war file and then choose "Unpack as Web Module" from the WAR file node. This is not intuitive behavior. Suggested Fix: The "Unpack as Web Module" option should be provided on the mounted WAR file node. Evaluation: this is more a request for jarpackager rkubacki@netbeans.org 2001-12-13 A comment.

No plans to open WAR files as web projects in future.
