When the wizard is complete, the following two projects are created in your workspace:
| RAD75AppClientEAR: This is an enterprise application project that acts as a container for the code to be deployed on the application client node.
|
| RAD75AppClient: This project contains the code for the application client. For now, it is empty, except for the META-INF/application-client.xml file, which is the application client deployment descriptor.
