The Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat provides out-of-the-box support for
deploying
standard Java EE WAR files. In addition support for
<span class="emphasis"><em>Shared Libraries</em></span>
and
<span class="emphasis"><em>Shared Services</em></span>
WAR formats provides a logical migration path away from standard,
monolithic WARs toward OSGi-enable Web applications. The PAR
packaging
and deployment format enables truly fine-grained,
loosely-coupled, and
efficient application development. In general,
the migration steps
presented in this chapter are fairly
straightforward, but developers
should set aside time for some
up-front design of the bundles themselves.
</p><p>
It is recommended that you take another sample application or
indeed your own small application and go through this migration
process yourself. This will help you better understand the concepts
and
principles at work. In addition, it is highly recommended that you
familiarize yourself with the extensive Eclipse IDE support provided
by the Virgo Tools. See the Virgo Tools Guide for more on that.
