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
