How to distribute java project built in Eclipse?

Till now, I have been using Netbeans IDE for Java Applications. To distribute applications made in Netbeans, I just click on clean and build and it packs the application in .jar file which resides in a dist directory.

Now I have made a java project in Eclipse. Is Eclipse has any functionality similar to clean and build functionality of Netbeans by which we can pack java applications to distribute them.

To distribute a project as a jar then you have to right click on the project and select export and in that select as jar.

File -> Export...

And choose Java -> JAR File. You will get a wizard to export any of your projects
