To Build, Package, Deploy, and Run the hello2 Example Using Ant

1. In a terminal window, go to:

   tut-install/examples/web/hello2/

2. Type the following command:

   ant

   This target builds the WAR file and copies it to the tut-install/examples/web/hello2/dist/ directory.

3. Type ant deploy.

   Ignore the URL shown in the deploy target output.

4. In a web browser, open the URL http://localhost:8080/hello2/greeting.

   The URL specifies the context root, followed by the URL pattern.

   The application looks much like the hello1 application shown in Figure 3–2. The major difference is that after you click the Submit button, the response appears below the greeting, not on a separate page.
