Application Server

Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 9 is the build and runtime

environment for the tutorial examples. To build, deploy, and run the examples,

you need a copy of the Application Server and the J2SE 5.0.

Building the Examples

Most of the examples are distributed with a build file for Ant, a portable build
tool contained in the Java WSDP. For information about Ant, visit

http://ant.apache.org/

. Directions for building the examples are provided in

each chapter. Most of the tutorial examples are distributed with a configuration
file for

asant

, a portable build tool contained in the Application Server. This tool

is an extension of the Ant tool developed by the Apache Software Foundation
(

http://ant.apache.org

). The

asant

utility contains additional tasks that

invoke the Application Server administration utility

asadmin

. Directions for

building the examples are provided in each chapter.
