Open “Project Structure” dialog, select “Artifacts” item, press ‘+’ button to create a war artifact. After that you’ll be able to build the war by using Build | Build Artifact menu item.

intellij wont create jar archives if they doesn’t contain a main class.
creating libraries isn’t possible with 90.94 without handmade ant or maven script.
mixing artifacts is difficult because there is no sorting except the artifact name.

This bug is already fixed (see http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/IDEADEV-40863). The fix will be available in next EAP build.

I am having problem with a compile output. The folder ‘classes’ simply is not created although it works for ‘lib’ directory. Any suggestions ? (Maia 90.94)

Absolutely nice! Anyhow, there is one thing that I would like to see in addition. The current artifact editor checks if all dependencies are also contained in the artifact. If for example my module depends on Hibernate libraries, the artifact editor shows a warning as long as the Hibernate libraries are not added to the artifact. However, if the artifact is about to be deployed on a JBoss server, the Hibernate libraries are already present and don’t have to be included in the artifact. It would be nice if there would be some kind of function that would allow me to mark a library as “not required” or “compile only” in the artifact editor.

Regards,
Stephan

This is a must have if you’ve got lots of intertwining projects or a really large one. I wish this existed sooner when I had loads of university work to do!
