| <context> <p> Unlike with <xref href="twcresta.dita" scope="peer"><desc></desc>static</xref> Web | |
| projects, dynamic Web projects enable you to create resources such as JavaServer | |
| Pages and servlets.</p><p>To create a new dynamic Web project, complete the | |
| following steps:</p></context> | |
| <steps> | |
| <step><cmd>Open the Java EE perspective.</cmd></step> | |
| <step><cmd>In the Project Explorer, right click on Dynamic Web Projects, and | |
| select <menucascade><uicontrol>New</uicontrol><uicontrol>Dynamic Web Project</uicontrol> | |
| </menucascade> from the context menu. The New Dynamic Web Project wizard starts.</cmd> | |

| <postreq><p><b>General Information</b></p><dl><dlentry> | |
| <dt>Project Facets </dt> | |
| <dd>A facet represents a unit of functionality in a Web project. For example, | |
| the Dynamic Web Module facet enables the project to be deployed as a dynamic | |
| Web module. A brief description of a project facet appears in the wizard when | |
| you select it. Note that in many instances, you can view the constraints | |
| for a project facet by right clicking on the facet and selecting project constraints | |
| from the pop up menu. </dd> | |
| </dlentry><dlentry> | |
| <dt>Target Runtime</dt> | |
| <dd>Use this field to define a new installed runtime environment. Runtimes | |
| are used at build time to compile projects.</dd> | |
| </dlentry><dlentry> | |
| <dt>Enterprise Application project (EAR Project)</dt> | |
| <dd>A new or existing Enterprise Application project (EAR Project) must be | |
| associated with your new Web project to facilitate deployment. If you want | |
| to override the default settings for the Enterprise Application project, you | |
| can do so using the wizard. When your Web project is created at the end of | |
| the wizard, the new Enterprise Application project is also created with the | |
| name specified in the EAR project field. Note that the default is the name | |
| of the web project appended with EAR (unless the ear project was selected | |
| when you opened the wizard.)</dd> | |
| </dlentry><dlentry> | |
| <dt>Context Root</dt> | |
| <dd>The context root is the Web application root, which is the top-level directory | |
| of your application when it is deployed to the Web server. You can change | |
| the context root after you create a project using the project Properties dialog, | |
| which you access from the project's pop-up menu. The context root can also | |
| be used by the links builder to ensure that your links remain ready to publish | |
| as you move and rename files inside your project.</dd> | |
