Creating static Web projects
In the workbench, you create and maintain resources for Web applications in Web projects. If you want to create a static, content-based Web application that does not contain dynamic elements, such as JSP files or servlets, use the
New Static Web Project wizard.
To create a new static Web project:
- Open the Web perspective
- Select
File | New | Other | Web | Static Web Project and then click Next. The New Static Web Project wizard starts.
- Follow the project wizard prompts
General Information
- Project Facets
- A facet represents a unit of functionality in a Web project. For example, the Static Web Module facet enables the project to be deployed as a static Web module. A brief description of a project facet appears in the wizard when you select it. Note that in many instances, you can view the constraints for a project facet by right clicking on the facet and selecting project constraints from the pop up menu. You can select facets for your Web project by clicking
Modify in the Configuration section of the Static Web Project page of the wizard.
- Target Runtime
- Use this field to select an existing runtime server or to define a new runtime environment. Runtimes are used at build time to compile projects.
- Web Content Folder
- The folder in which you want to store your publishable resources.
