Hi Venkatesh ,
To create or import the Servlet in workshop and to run it, we need to follow the steps in workshop as given below.
1)Create the empty application
2)Create the webproject under the application
3)Right click on the webproject and choose the new -> java Class to write the
servlet in IDE Or choose import option and import the servlet file
4)Start the weblogic server
5)Go to tools menu->choose weblogic server->choose weblogic builder
6) In weblogic builder go to file menu->open your webproject
then it shows servlet ,filter,security Constriant and tag libraries folders in a builder at left side
7)Click on the servlet folder and click on the add button at right pane of the builder then you will give servlet name , servlet class name and url pattern.
After giving the Urlpattern click on the add button which is right to the urlpatern text field.
8)Click on ok button
9)click on the save button
then you will see the servlet mapping elements in web.xml file in workshop IDE what we given in builder.
10)Exit from the weblogic builder
11)Right click on the application and clean the application
12)Build the application
then it compiles the Servlets files automatically.
You can see the those class files in .workshop folder which is located under applicaton folder.
Note :go to the applicaton where it is stored.you should see these files manually because workshop ide shows the navigation from the webproject only. you can't see these files from workshop.
13)Go to tools menu->weblogic server->weblogic console and test the application using the weblogic console.
or Directly opent he internet explorer send a request for particular servlet by giving urlpattern.
