Compiling and testing the application

In this application we will compile and deploy the application on tomcat.

You can download the full running code of the application from here.

Unzip the file to tomcat webapps directory and to compile the project go to the project\WEB-INF\src of your poject and then use ant tool to compile the application. Here is the out put of the process.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>cd C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\src

C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\src>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

clean:
[delete] Deleting directory C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\classes
[mkdir] Created dir: C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\classes

prepare:

resources:
[copy] Copying 2 files to C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\src\classes

compile:
[javac] Compiling 18 source files to C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\src\classes
[javac] Note: Some input files use unchecked or unsafe operations.
[javac] Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
[jar] Building jar: C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\lib\project.jar

project:

all:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 9 seconds
C:\tomcat\apache-tomcat-5.5.12\webapps\project\WEB-INF\src>

Now start the tomcat and type http://localhost:8080/project in your browser. You browser should show the following home page:

Now you can test the full application by selection the different links.

IF u are getting that JDBC connect exception , make sure that u have placed the mysql connector jar file in the lib folder under WEB-INF..That made our code work fine..

Presentaion methology & resource avaiability is rocking in the tutorial.
..............................................
But i am having my query pls solve...Letyou in step whats i have done .
1. Copy project.zip and extract it into webapps directory in tomcat.
2. Installed MYSQL and create database & table as prescribed.
3. As spring,hibernate & struts .jar are already been added so I think no need to install them seprately,as i have not done.Just copy project directory into Tomcats webapps folder.
