Hello listmembers, I am new to all this java webapplication stuff, but I hope you can help me to get into this great technologies.
So far I have got my tomcat server (5.5.23-r6) up and runnig, struts-2.0.9 is on my system (gentoo-linux) and I was able to deploy the sample war "blank" ([1] tree output). Now I would like to follow the struts tutorial [2] and create my own war file from scratch... But the problem is, that simply don't know how to create a war file using ant or even maven. Can you point me to the right direction? What is this MANIFEST.MF about? Does ant or maven compile any sourcecode, or is it just packin the files and the servlet-container compiles the first time it gets run? How does the filestructure of my sources have to look like befor using [ant|maven]?
