  Quick-Start FAQ
  ===============
  
  What's Struts Blank?
  
  - It's an "empty" application provided to help you get started on your own project. 
Just copy the struts-blank.war to a new WAR file using the name for your application. 
Place it in your container's "webapp" folder (or equivalent), and let your container 
auto-deploy the application. Edit the skeleton configuration files as needed, restart 
your container, and you are on your way! (You can find the application.properties file 
with this message in the /WEB-INF/src/java/resources folder.)
  
  Where do I put my own code?
  
  - The build file is setup so that you can place your own packages anywhere under the 
WEB-INF/src directory. 
  
  What are the references to /javasoft/lib in the build.xml about?
  
  - Most Struts applications use some common JAR files. This is one common location 
for these on a development computer, but another may be used
  
  What targets does the build file accept?
  
  - "clean" to delete the old class, resource, and configuration files. 
  
  - "compile" to rebuild the Java class files and copy over the resource and 
configuration files. 
  
  - "project" to also generate the Javadoc.
  
  - "dist" to create a binary distribution.
  
  - "all" for a clean rebuild the project and binary distributions.
  
  Where are the binary distributions placed?
  
  - By default, under /projects/lib on your default drive. You can change these 
through the "distpath.project" variable in the build file.
  
  Where's the Application Resources?
  
  - It's named application.properties. The original is under 
WEB-INF/src/java/resources. The resource bundle is copied under classes during a build.
  
  Why did the changes to my application.properties or other resource file disappear?
  
  - The original configuration files are under WEB-INF/src/java and copied under 
classes during a build. Change the WEB-INF/src/java versions and rebuild before 
deploying.
