Examples

Most code examples, if installed, are located in WL_HOME\samples\server\src\examples, where WL_HOME is the top-level directory of your WebLogic Platform installation. These examples are also available from the Start menu.

The examples are grouped in the following categories:

cgi: Set up a cgi servlet mapping for including CGI scripts to your Web application.



cluster: Write applications for WebLogic Server clusters, including using load balancing and failover.

ejb20: Use EJB 2.0 features such as local interfaces, the EJB 2.0 container-managed persistence model, home methods, and message-driven beans.



i18n: Internationalize an application using simple XML message catalogs and write localized messages to a log.



iiop: Connect between WebLogic Server and C++, Tuxedo, and RMI clients.



io: Use the weblogic.io.common package to write to and browse files on the server.
