title: Adding External jar files in Eclipse for EAR Project
body: <p>I needed to add external jar files to a EAR Project.
  I did add but the jar files are not reflecting in the lib directory, it is showing below to lib directory.
  I added these jar files on right clicking on Deployment Descriptor, Import-> Java EE Utility Jar and  choosing to copy from the folder.
  When I dragged the jar file on the lib directory the velocity jar file gets changed to .ear file in the eclipse project explorer.</p>
  
  <p>I have attached a snapshot of the project explorer. Could you please let me know how to add external jar files to ear project as my EJB requires external jars to be included.</p>

  <p>I have even added classpath for jar files in my EJB manifest file 
  <code>Class-Path: ErpServices-ejb.jar velocity-1.6.4.jar velocity-1.6.4-dep.jar xwork-core-2.2.1.1.jar</code>
  Looking forward to your reply. thanks.</p>
