title: Deploying a Spring app to Weblogic with no web components - war, rar, or ejb?
body: <p>I'm deploying a new Spring JMS application to Weblogic 11g.  What is the accepted way to deploy a Spring application with no web components to Weblogic?</p>
  
  <p>Historically the apps I've been working on have used a WAR to load the application context.  This does not seem like an acceptable solution now since this new application does not have any web components.  Wrapping the deployment in an EJB does not seem acceptable either since Spring is supposed to be a replacement to EJB.  A RAR does not seem to fit either, since the new application is not supplying any resources to other applications.</p>
  
  <p>What options do I have, what is the accepted deployment method here?</p>
