Creating the Bank Database Using Ant

    In Duke’s Bank, the database tables will be created and populated before deploying the application. This happens automatically when you run the deploy task. You can manually reset the database to its original state by following these steps:

  1. In a terminal window or command prompt, go to the tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/dukesbank/ directory.

  2. Execute the following command:


    ant create-tables
    

This task executes the SQL commands contained in tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/common/sql/javadb/tutorial.sql. The SQL commands delete any existing tables, create new tables, and insert the initial data in the tables.
