Downloading and Running the Example

This section tells you how to get the example, build it, and run it.

Downloading the Example

1. Go to the jMaki sample WAR files download area .

2. Download one of the following files:

   • plotCity.war: Download this file if you just want to deploy and run the example the way you do for any other web application.

   • plotCity.zip: Download this file if you want to load the plotCity project in NetBeans IDE 6.1, build it, deploy it, and run it.

3. If you downloaded the plotCity.zip file, extract the zip file.

Building and Running the plotCity Application in NetBeans IDE 6.1

With this task, you'll be able to run plotCity in your browser.

1. Select File->Open Project in NetBeans IDE 6.1.

2. Select the plotCity project that you extracted from the zip file in the previous task, and click OK.

3. Right click on the plotCity application in the Projects pane and select Run Project.

   This will compile the classes, package the files into a WAR file, deploy the WAR to your GlassFish v3 Technology Preview 2 Application server instance, and open a web browser to the following URL:

   http://<server>:<server port>/plotCity/

4. Select a state from the State combobox. Then select a city from the City combobox. You'll see that city plotted on the map.
