Download the dojo 1.0 slides and sample code. Deploy the sample code as described below, try out the examples, look at the code, read the slides, learn about the dojo 1.0 framework.


Running the Sample Code

The sample code for this tip is available as a NetBeans project. You can build and run the sample code using the NetBeans IDE.

Setting Things Up

1. Download and install NetBeans 6
   
2. Download and install GlassFish V2. (Or download Glassfish bundled with Netbeans)
   Alternatively you can use Sun Java System Application Server PE 9, Sun's binary distribution of GlassFish.
   
3. Add the GlassFish server to NetBeans:
   
   
   • Start NetBeans and switch to the Runtime window (Ctrl+5).
     
   • Right-click the Servers node and select Add Server.
     
   • Select Sun Java System Application Server.
     
   • Browse to the location where you installed GlassFish and select Finish.
     

Open and Run the Sample code:

1. Download the sample code and extract its contents. You should now see the newly extracted directory as <sample_install_dir>/dojoApp, where <sample_install_dir> is the directory where you installed the sample package. For example, if you extracted the contents to C:\ on a Windows machine, then your newly created directory should be at C:\dojoApp.
   
   
2. Start the NetBeans IDE. Click Open Project in the File menu and select the dojoApp directory you just unzipped.
   
   
3. Run the project as follows:
   
   
   • Right click the dojoApp node in the Projects window.
     
   • Select Run Project.
     

When you run the project, your browser should display the opening page of the dojo Sample Application (at http://localhost:8080/dojoApp/).
