That book was written to use Tomcat 3 and the 1.2 JDK. If you use these
versions, you can use the book as-is. Otherwise, you'll have to understand
the differences between Tomcat 3/4/5 and JDK versions 1.2/1.3/1.4 in order
to make the necessary changes to the examples.

For example, one big change introduced in JDK 1.3 is to enforce  use of
fully-qualified identifiers, such that you can no longer import classes from
the default (unnamed) package into a class. Thus many source code examples
that would compile under a 1.2 JDK will no longer work correctly under 1.3.
This isn't a tomcat specific issue though.
