|
<p>In order to use Tomcat for developing web applications, you must first
|
|
install it (and the software it depends on). The required steps are outlined
|
|
in the following subsections.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="subsection"><h4 id="JDK">JDK</h4><div class="text">
|
|
|
|
<p>Tomcat 8.0 was designed to run on Java SE 7.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Compatible JDKs for many platforms (or links to where they can be found)
|
|
are available at
|
|
<a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html">http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html</a>.</p>

</div></div>
|
|
|
|
<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Tomcat">Tomcat</h4><div class="text">
|
|
|
|
<p>Binary downloads of the <strong>Tomcat</strong> server are available from
|
|
<a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/">https://tomcat.apache.org/</a>.
|
|
This manual assumes you are using the most recent release
|
|
of Tomcat 8. Detailed instructions for downloading and installing
|
|
Tomcat are available <a href="../setup.html">here</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In the remainder of this manual, example shell scripts assume that you have
|
|
set an environment variable <code>CATALINA_HOME</code> that contains the
|
|
pathname to the directory in which Tomcat has been installed. Optionally, if
|
|
Tomcat has been configured for multiple instances, each instance will have its
|
|
own <code>CATALINA_BASE</code> configured.</p>
|
|
|
|
</div></div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Ant">Ant</h4><div class="text">
|
|
|
|
<p>Binary downloads of the <strong>Ant</strong> build tool are available from
|
|
<a href="https://ant.apache.org/">https://ant.apache.org/</a>.
|
|
This manual assumes you are using Ant 1.8 or later. The instructions may
|
|
also be compatible with other versions, but this has not been tested.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Download and install Ant.
|
|
Then, add the <code>bin</code> directory of the Ant distribution to your
|
|
<code>PATH</code> environment variable, following the standard practices for
|
|
your operating system platform. Once you have done this, you will be able to
|
|
execute the <code>ant</code> shell command directly.</p>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="subsection"><h4 id="CVS">CVS</h4><div class="text">
|
|
|
|
<p>Besides the required tools described above, you are strongly encouraged
|
|
to download and install a <em>source code control</em> system, such as the
|
|
<strong>Concurrent Version System</strong> (CVS), to maintain historical
|
|
versions of the source files that make up your web application. Besides
|
|
the server, you will also need appropriate client
|
|
tools to check out source code files, and check in modified versions.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Detailed instructions for installing and using source code control
|
|
applications is beyond the scope of this manual. However, CVS server and
|
|
client tools for many platforms (along with documentation) can be downloaded
|
|
from <a href="http://www.cvshome.org/">http://www.cvshome.org/</a>.</p>
