| <h1 class="topictitle1">Web projects</h1> |
| <div><p>Web projects hold all of the Web resources that |
| |
| are created and used when developing your Web application. The first step |
| |
| to creating or importing a Web application is to create either a static or |
| |
| a dynamic Web project. Static Web projects are meant to contain only simple |
| |
| Web site resources, such as HTML files. Dynamic Web projects are used to structure |
| |
| Web applications that will use more complicated, dynamic Web technologies, |
| |
| such as JavaServer Pages files, and possibly data access resources.</p> |
| <p>Though the Web project is structured on your file system in compliance |
| |
| with the J2EE Web application standard for deployment purposes, the Project |
| |
| Explorer view is designed to show the most convenient display of project resources |
| |
| for use while you are actually developing the Web application. When you are |
| |
| finished developing your Web application, you use the Web project to deploy |
| |
| the correct resources to the server. These resources will be packaged in a |
| |
| file called a Web archive, or WAR file.</p> |
