Assemble the application: Compile the servlet
After you copy the source code files for your sample application and compiled your enterprise bean files, compile the servlet into a .class file before you can package it into an EAR file and deploy it on your iSeries server.
Follow these steps to compile the servlet:
-
Enter the Start Qshell (STRQSH) command on an OS/400 command line.
-
On the Qshell command line, enter this command:
cd /hcsample
-
Set the classpath to include the J2EE classes, which are contained in the j2ee.jar file. Enter this command:
export -s CLASSPATH=.:/QIBM/ProdData/WebAS5/Base/lib/j2ee.jar
-
Compile your servlet. Enter this command:
javac HitCount.java
Troubleshooting
If your code compiles with errors, check if the correct Java version is being used. On the Qshell command line, enter this command:
java -version
If it does not indicate the JDK 1.3.x level, you need to explicitly specify the version to use when compiling by entering this command:
javac -J-Djava.version=1.3 /hcsample/com/ibm/defaultapplication/*.java
If you still have compilation errors after checking your Java version, check your classpath. On the Qshell command line, enter this command:
echo $CLASSPATH
The correct classpath is .:/QIBM/ProdData/WebAS5/Base/lib/j2ee.jar. The first period refers to the current directory, and /QIBM/ProdData/WebAS5/Base/lib/j2ee.jar refers to the J2EE APIs.
