I am developing an J2EE application in WSAD 5.0.0 in which there are a few problems facing me that I want to raise for your comment:
1. All jsp are stored under "WebContent" in the file hierarchy. Under the "WebContent", I created a folder called "img" in which all images used in the jsp pages are stored. When I write the link to refer to the images in the jsp pages, WSAD recognized /img/pic.jpg as broken link. Instead, it should /WebContent/img/pib.jpg. How should I configure the project so that the /img/pic.jpg is recognized as correct link?
2. There is an option to export the whole project as a EAR file. Suppose I am going to preserve the file hierarchy in other machine, says SUN Solaris, for some reasons and export the hierarchy as a EAR file using Ant build tool from Apache which requires a XML as the instruction to build the EAR file. Can I obtain the xml file from the WSAD that I will use in executing Ant building tool to create the EAR file?
3. Can WSAD integrate will ClearCase, a version controlling system similar to CVS?
Thank you very much
Regards, Joe

Try to link the image as img/pic.jpg instead of /img/pic.jpg

Build system in WSAD (and eclipse) is proprietary and doesn`t generate ant bild files for you. But you can develop ant files within WSAD (eclipse).

Yes clearcase is supported. With WSAD you also get clearcase LT license.
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
