I need the comments in the scripts to be omitted at the time of building war files

[karthikeyan <su...@yahoo.co.in>]

I have noted that JavaScript files that contain lots of comments take longer
(and more bandwidth) to fetch from the web server to the client's browser
session. By stripping out the comments at build time the files will load
quicker and increase the speed of rendering. Can any one let me know the way
i can omit adding comments at the time of building war files

Run the file through a javascript compressor and include the
compressed versions in the war instead of the originals?
For example, the YUI Compressor
(http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/compressor/) can be run with a <java>
task, or there's an Ant task wrapper for it at
http://code.google.com/p/javaflight-code/wiki/YuiCompressorAntTask
