<p>Congratulations! You've decided to (or been told to) learn how to
|
|
build web applications using servlets and JSP pages, and picked the
|
|
Tomcat server to use for your learning and development. But now what
|
|
do you do?</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This manual is a primer covering the basic steps of using Tomcat to
|
|
set up a development environment, organize your source code, and then
|
|
build and test your application. It does not discuss architectures or
|
|
recommended coding practices for web application development,
|
|
or provide in depth instructions on operating the development
|
|
tools that are discussed. References to sources of additional information
|
|
are included in the following subsections.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The discussion in this manual is aimed at developers who will be using
|
|
a text editor along with command line tools to develop and debug their
|
|
applications. As such, the recommendations are fairly generic -- but you
|
|
should easily be able to apply them in either a Windows-based or Unix-based
|
|
development environment. If you are utilizing an Interactive Development
|
|
Environment (IDE) tool, you will need to adapt the advice given here to
|
|
the details of your particular environment.</p>

the programming environment provided by standard implementations

of the JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology. In conjunction with

the Servlet API Specification (see below), this document describes

what a portable API page is allowed to contain. Specific

information on scripting (Chapter 6), tag extensions (Chapter 7),

and packaging JSP pages (Appendix A) is useful. The Javadoc

programming environment that must be provided by all servlet

containers conforming to this specification. In particular, you

will need this document to understand the web application
|
|
directory structure and deployment file (Chapter 9), methods of
|
|
mapping request URIs to servlets (Chapter 11), container managed
|
|
security (Chapter 12), and the syntax of the <code>web.xml</code>
|
|
Web Application Deployment Descriptor (Chapter 13). The Javadoc

does not require other J2EE platform components.
