Use this tab to specify settings for Maven projects with WAR artifacts.

Item | Description |
---|---|
Unpack nested archives | Select this option if you want IntelliJ IDEA to unpack nested JAR files. For example, you have a multi-module Maven project where a module depends on the other one and has an EAR or WAR artifact. In this case when you import or deploy such module, IntelliJ IDEA creates a JAR file with module dependencies. If you want a dependency to such module be deployed as a folder instead of a JAR file, select this option.
