.
To deploy and run the application using Ant, follow these steps:
1. In a terminal window, go to tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/web/bookstore5/.
2. Type ant. This command will spawn any necessary compilations, copy files to the
tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/web/bookstore5/build/ directory, and create a
WAR file and copy it to the
tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/web/bookstore5/dist/ directory.
3. Start the Application Server.
4. Perform all the operations described in
5. To deploy the example, type ant deploy. The deploy target outputs a URL for running the

To learn how to configure the bookstore5 example, refer to the web.xml file, which includes the
following configurations:
A display-name element that specifies the name that tools use to identify the application.
A context-param element that identifies the context path to the XML stream.
A context-param element that specifies the JSTL resource bundle base name.
A set of servlet elements that identify the JSP files in the application.
A set of servlet-mapping elements that identify aliases to the JSP pages identified by the
servlet
elements.
Nested inside a jsp-config element are two jsp-property-group elements, which define
the preludes and coda to be included in each page. See
for more information.
To learn how to configure the books example, refer to the web.xml file, which includes the
