| <h1 class="topictitle1">Web application overview</h1> |
| <p>The Web development environment provides the tools |
| |
| you need to develop Web applications as defined in the <cite>Sun Microsystems Java Servlet |
| |
| 2.3 Specification</cite> and the <cite>Sun Microsystems JSP 1.2 Specification</cite>. |
| |
| Web applications can be simple (consisting of only static Web pages) or they |
| |
| can be more advanced and include JavaServer Pages (JSP) files and Java servlets. |
| |
| These resources, along with an XML <a href="../org.eclipse.wst.webtools.doc.user/topics/twedtwbx.html">deployment descriptor</a> (<span class="filepath">web.xml</span>) and other <a href="cwebresources.html"> Web resources</a>, are contained within a Web project during development. |
| |
| When you are ready to publish the Web application to the Web, you deploy the |
| |
| Web project to the server in the form of a Web archive (WAR) file . The end |
| |
| user can then view the Web application as a Web site from a URL.</p> |
